CHARMM is a versatile program for atomic-level simulation of
many-particle systems, particularly macromolecules of
biological interest. - M. Karplus
PhD position in computational biochemistry
Date
2021-12-03
Location
Berlin, Germany
Description
As part of the Cluster of Excellence “Unifying Systems in Catalysis†(UniSysCat) at the TU Berlin, the work group “Theoretical Structural Biologyâ€, headed by Dr. Ariane Nunes Alves (https://www.unisyscat.de/group-leaders/nunes-alves-ariane.html), aims at developing and applying computational methods to study ligand binding kinetics and use kinetic rates for optimizing enzyme catalysis. The position offers a friendly work environment, mentoring for in-depth knowledge of computational biochemistry and biophysics, and support to reach the promotion.
Requirements:
