Research

Our laboratory is focused on the development and use of computational tools for the design and engineering of proteins, with the aim to develop new protein-based therapeutics, vaccines, biosensors and more.

Computational and experimental techniques to manipulate protein structure and function hold the potential to make transformative contributions in the most diverse scientific domains. Our laboratory develops and applies protein computational methodologies to design novel functional and therapeutic proteins. Assessment of the computational work is carried out by the experimental arm of the laboratory where testing of our computationally generated hypothesis is performed.
