Biography
Rathore obtained M.Sc. (1990) from Vikram University and M. Phil (1991) from Devi Ahilya University Indore. During 1991-99, he worked in the area of protein de novo design for PhD at Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. His postdoctoral work was on miniprotein design using conformation ensemble strategy at the University of Texas (Medical Branch), Galveston, Tx, USA. Dr. Rathore earlier worked in Schrödinger Inc.(USA), University of Hyderabad, TIFR and other places. He is an adviser to Institute of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (IBCB) Visakhapatnam, India and also to few pharmaceutical companies. Dr. Rathore has extensively lectured and provided hands-on training to about 5000-faculties, teachers, scientist, and students in the field of computational modeling and molecular drug discovery area at India and abroad. His main interests are QM/MM-based Free Energy Perturbation for lead optimizations and computational design of biologics.
