Physical & Theoretical Chemistry

We are interested in studying the structure and dynamics of the cellular protein machinery. Through this we hope to understand the molecular basis for their function in healthy organisms, and malfunction in disease. Our research relies on combining traditional structural biology approaches with new biophysical techniques in order to interrogate our system of interest from multiple angles. In this way we can obtain a thorough description of the molecular structure and its associated dynamics.
