Research Interest
Research interests Structural changes of proteins are important for the control of cellular processes and failure to function correctly can lead to disease. We are studying the nature of protein-ligand interactions that have well-characterised biological functions with atomic resolution. The role of protein dynamics in molecular recognition processes is a particular focus of my work.
