Keywords: Computational Biology, Systems Biology, Structural Biology, Probabilistic Graphical Models, Molecular Dynamics Simulation and Analysis

Posted on: Thursday, May 5th, 2011
Broad Research Area: AI / Machine Learning / Robotics / Vision, Other, Scientific/Medical Informatics

Research Interests:

My group works in two areas: Computational Structural Biology and Systems Biology. Our work in structural biology focuses on physics-based methods for modeling, simulating, designing, and analyzing biomolecular interactions. Specific applications include protein and drug design. Most of this work involves probabilistic graphical models. Our work in systems biology focuses on clinical applications in collaboration with physicians at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and the Hillman Cancer Center. Specific applications include the development of statistical and mechanistic models of disease processes.
