Interests
- Translocation of denatured protein through protein channels. In particulat how flagellin monomers travel through the inner channel of flagellum.
- Protein Docking. I am working on a Protein Docking program which uses a Parallel Simulated Annealing algorithm and other principles Artificial Intelligence. It is written in CUDA to run on GPUs.
- I also contribute to developing group resources as a part of the Web Development Team and the System Admin Tream.
