Teaching Interests

One of my main interests is to foster active learning through discovery-guided projects. In the past few semesters, classroom research projects have been designed and introduced in biophysical and physical chemistry courses, mostly with senior students. These projects are computational and are being carried out using either a remote server or the in-houseBlugold Super-Computing Cluster.

 

Research Interests

My research interest is focused on two broad topics:

a) Redox chemistry and its role in ping-pong enzyme kinetics

b) Enzyme catalysis and its link to protein dynamics and allostery

We use theory, concepts of physical chemistry, and advanced computer simulation methods to explore these questions. In addition, we also collaborate with experimentalists to validate the theoretical findings.
