How do pharmacological agents exert their effects, and what are the implications of elucidating these mechanisms? Within our biomolecular modeling lab, we strive to address this inquiry utilizing computational algorithms. Our primary focus is elucidating the dynamic interplay between receptors and pharmacological agents, as well as elucidating the conformational rearrangements of receptors. As a member of the group with the background in veterinary medicine, structural bioinformatics, and computer aided drug design, I employ sophisticated methodologies such as Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation and molecular modeling to deepen our understanding of drug-receptor interactions. We aim to facilitate the development of novel therapeutics with enhanced efficacy and safety profiles, fostering improvements in patient care and public health outcomes.
