The Computational Biochemistry Group

The research in our group is focused on the development and application of computational methods to the study of biological phenomena.  The general aim is to understand and predict the structural and dynamic properties of complex protein systems at atomic-level resolution. 

Our main lines of investigation include:

• Peptide and Protein Folding 
• Peptide Mis-Folding and Aggregation
• Design of New Anti-Cancer and Anti-Hiv Compounds 
• The Study of the Determinants of Protein Stability
• The Study of Biological Molecular Recognition Phenomena
