Main Research Topics

Work on molecular dynamics program CHARMM and developing new methods for
simulations of macromolecular systems especially combined quantum and
classical mechanics potentials.  I work on extending of parallelism for
all available methods in CHARMM, improving their efficiency, and
applying these methods to specific problems of biomedical and materials
science interest.
