Jianyi Yang's Research Group
Research
With the interdisciplinary research involving
Artificial intelligence,
Mathematics, and
Life science, we create novel algorithms for structural bioinformatics. We are interested in the following areas:
- Protein structure prediction
- RNA structure prediction
- Protein-ligand interaction
- Protein structure alignment
- Intrinsically disordered proteins
