and thermodynamics of complex molecular systems including proteins, enzymes, liquids, and nanomaterials.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="methods"&gt;Methods&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Classical and enhanced-sampling MD simulations&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Free energy calculations&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;QM/MM approaches&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Development of force fields and simulation protocols&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2 id="goals"&gt;Goals&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Understand molecular recognition and binding&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Elucidate reaction mechanisms in enzymes&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Predict thermodynamic and transport properties of liquids&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Connect atomistic structure to macroscopic observables&lt;/li&gt;
