Research

Integrating molecular dynamics simulations and machine learning to study epitope binding by TCR.

During my PhD I studied the behavior of Photosystem II using coarse grained molecular dynamics. This was in the Martini group headed by Siewert-Jan Marrink at the University of Groningen in The Netherlands. I came to Japan to join the lab of Daron Standley to study immunology and to integrate molecular dynamics with machine learning.

Excerpt from a half mili second simulation in which plastoquinone is seen entering Photosystem II, one of the major findings from my PhD.
