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
