Research Interests

I am interested in protein structure, protein/protein interactions and their dynamics, and the effects of mutations. I am interested in using computational approaches to answer questions related to these interests. These methods include protein structure prediction using physics or AI-based methods (such as AlphaFold), molecular dynamics, and free-energy calculations.
