Research Interests

 

Our group primarily uses molecular dynamics simulation methods to address the following:

(1)    Interaction of polysaccharides with cholesterol and low density lipoproteins; Influence of glycosidic linkage/monosaccharide structure on polysaccharide mechanics.

(2)    Folding of neurotoxic peptides having multiple disulfide bonds in conventional solvents and ionic liquids.

(3)    Modeling and simulation of clays and adsorption on surfaces
