Computational Molecular Modeling and Experimental Biophysics

Our interest is in the structural and dynamic properties of large-scale, self-assembled macromolecular complexes, such as biological membranes. As the fundamental component of sub-cellular organization, the membrane impacts nearly every aspect of cell biology: from cell growth and movement to signal transduction and intracellular transport of proteins.
