Visualizing the Molecular World

The research in the Mabuchi Group involves theoretical and computer simulation studies of biomolecular and materials systems. One of our goals is to elucidate and predict complex phenomena (e.g., protein self-assembly and ion transport through ion channels/nanopores) in these systems, which could contribute to the rational design of new biopolymers with tailorable versatile functions. Our research is often carried out in close collaboration with leading experimentalists from around the world.
