Congratulations to Dr. Havva (Eve) Kohestani for the excellent defense of her thesis “Structure and Dynamics of Modified Nucleosome Under Epigenetic Regulation.” Well done Eve!

Congratulations to Dr. Dustin Woods for defending his thesis “An Exploration Into the Effects of Chromatin Structural Proteins on the Dynamics and Energetic Landscape of Nucleosome Architectures.” Dustin will be moving on from our group and has accepted a position as a Senior Scientist in Computational Chemistry at Evotec.

We’re very excited to announce that the NIH has renewed our R35 MIRA award for the next five years! The proposal “Probing the Structure/Function/Dynamics Relationship in Biomolecular Complexes with Multiscale Computational Techniques” will continue to fund projects in our group that use computational methods to explore and quantify how dynamic properties are linked to the […]

Congratulations to Joseph for doing an excellent job defending his thesis “Computational Study on the Heme Scavenging Ability of Staphylococcus Aureus IsdH Receptor: Utilizing Molecular Dynamics to Understand an Unknown Mechanism.” Well done Dr. Clayton!

Congratulations to Stefania Evoli, who has accepted a position as an Applications Scientist at the Chemical Computing Group!

Our group attended the 2020 Biophysical Society meeting in San Diego! We had some great presentations, interacted with excellent scientists from around the world, and enjoyed the warm weather.
