I am currently a postdoctoral fellow in the Prof. Mohammad Reza Ejtehadi’s group at SUT. Generally my research is centered around two inter-related questions: (i) how do proteins function by changing their conformation and undergoing concerted motions? and (ii) how can we simulate these functionally important conformational changes at an atomic level? In our group, I attempt to understand functionality of Histon and DNA and their behavior in Cromatin’s structure. I employ Molecular Dynamics Simulation and Quantum Mechanics Computations. I am interested in: Molecular Dynamics Simulation Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics Density Functional Theory DNA transcription Conformational Transitions in Membrane Transport Proteins Methodological Developments for Biomolecular Simulations Drug Delivery GPU Coding You could find more information about me in “https://ir.linkedin.com/in/maryam-atabay-03624181” Room: 621 E-mail: atabay@che.sharif.edu
