Presentation title:
Theoretical studies of protein aggregation
Abstract:
I will summarize my work on protein folding and aggregation problems over the past 10 years. A variety of computational models and methods will be introduced to characterize folding and aggregation free energy landscapes using computer simulations. Areas where comparison with experiment is possible will be emphasized.
