Daniel H. Murgida, PhD, is a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Buenos Aires, Faculty of Exact and Natural Sciences, and Principal Investigator of the National Research Council, CONICET, Argentina. His laboratory investigates structural, dynamics and mechanistic aspects of natural and chimeric electron transferring proteins and redox enzymes, with basic and applied purposes. This includes a variety of heme and copper metalloproteins that are investigated using spectroscopic, electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical methods in combination with protein engineering and computational simulations.
Principal Scientist, Atomwise. Adjunct associate professor of biochemistry and biophysics at Kansas State University. Research in computational/AI and structure-based drug design, biophotonics, machine learning for chemistry and drug discovery, protein crystallography.
Qing Nie is a Professor of Mathematics and Biomedical Engineering at University of California, Irvine. Dr. Nie's primary research areas include systems biology, stem cells, developmental biology, regulatory networks, stochastic dynamics, and computational mathematics.
I can best describe myself as a simulation biologist. I am interested in simulating life processes at multiple scales. From the atomic scale to understand protein function to cellular or systems scale to understand physiological processes. My main tool is the computer which I use to analyze, understand and predict biology. Secondary tools are in vitro biochemistry and biophysics experiments that I use to validate my predictions.
Professor at University of Bologna. From 2004 to 2021 Associate Professor in Computational Biophysics at University of Leeds. From 2001 to 2004, Oberassistent at the Department of Biochemistry, University of Zurich.
University at Madrid, Spain; PhD at EMBL Germany; Postdoc at the Gurdon Institute, Cambridge, UK; Group Leader as a Royal Society University Research Fellow and currently as a University Senior Research Fellow, Cambridge, UK. Also a Fellow of St John's College, Cambridge, UK
Biologist, PhD in Biotechnology. Director of the Centro BASAL Ciencia & Vida. Head Researcher of the Computational Biology Lab (dLab) at Fundacion Ciencia & Vida, Santiago, Chile. Research Professor at Facultad de Ingeniería y Tecnología, Universidad San Sebastián.
Roberta Pierattelli graduated in Chemistry at the University of Florence and received a Ph.D. in Chemistry in 1995. After a postdoctoral year at the University of Southampton, she was appointed at the University of Florence. Since 2017 she is Full Professor of Chemistry. Her research interests are mainly related to applications of NMR spectroscopy to the study of the structure and function of proteins and their interactions.
