Explore Our Research in Protein Evolution and Bioenergy Solutions

We employ computational tools to explore how proteins evolved from simple molecules into complex, efficient nanomachines that power life. By investigating the atomic details of protein structures through cutting-edge techniques like X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy, we aim to unravel the mechanisms behind their function and evolution, and bridge this molecular knowledge to drive innovations in energy harvesting and and biofuel productions.
