In our research, we investigate the function of proteins involved in
various biological energy transduction pathways.
Many of these proteins are metalloproteins or cofactor-containing proteins.
To study these proteins and processes,
we apply a variety of theoretical methods
including continuum electrostatics calculations,
molecular dynamics simulations and quantum chemical calculations.
Moreover, we develop methods to analyze and
simulate the energetics and kinetics of
charge and exciton transfer processes.
Our work is at the
interface of theoretical biophysics and biochemistry, bioinformatics and
computational biology, bioinorganic chemistry, and structural biology.
