The Group


Post-Doctoral Research Scientists
  • Thomas Young ([email protected]) - Applies statistical mechanical theory and computer simulation to the study of structure and dynamics in condensed phase systems. A particular emphasis is placed on systems of biological interest.
  • Boaz Ilan ([email protected]) – Scale spanning principles of biological function.
  • Ronen Zangi ([email protected]) - Structure and dynamics of biomolecules and properties of condensed phase systems.
  • Frauke Gräter ([email protected]) - Unfolded states, folding intermediates, and folding dynamics of proteins under force.
Graduate Students
  • Morton Hagen ([email protected]) - Design of novel Monte-Carlo sampling methods and applications thereof.
  • Yuhui Li ([email protected]) – Development of a non-periodic boundary model for simulation of solvated system. 
  • Lan Hua ([email protected]) - The dynamics and orientation of the water in the two-domain region of protein, and hydrophobic interaction in protein folding.
