Posted on: Monday, June 1st, 2009
Broad Research Area: Other, Scientific/Medical Informatics

Research Interests:

My lab does primarily protein structure prediction, but is starting to do computational protein design. We use hidden Markov models, neural nets, and genetic algorithms for optimization of cost functions. Postdocs should already be comfortable probramming in c++ and perl.
