Biography
Heinrich is currently working as Associate Professor of Molecular and Cell Biology at University of Witwatersrand. Academic thrust: Biochemistry and Cell Biology. Research field: Protein Biochemistry and Structural Biology Correlating structure, energetics and dynamics is key to obtaining a coherent picture of the biological functions of proteins. His research interests are consolidated into three main areas: 1 Folding mechanisms of multidomain and oligomeric proteins. 2 Mechanisms of molecular recognition and biological functions. 3 Protein dynamics and function.
Research Interest
He has keen interest in 1 Folding mechanisms of multidomain and oligomeric proteins. 2 Mechanisms of molecular recognition and biological functions. 3 Protein dynamics and function.
