Research Interests
I apply computer modelling and simulation techniques ranging from coarse-grained and atomistic molecular dynamics to molecular quantum mechanics in the study of chemical systems of biological and pharmaceutical interest. Currently I focus on membrane proteins and their associated complexes, particularly those involved in peptidoglycan and lipoprotein biosynthesis.
