Biocomputation and Bioinformatics Constellation

The Biocomputation and Bioinformatics Constellation focuses on developing new computing tools to analyze complex biological data, make predictions to guide experimental work, and offer powerful new methods to predict molecular structure and understand the complex behavior of living organisms.

Angel E. Garcia, renowned theoretical physicist in biomolecular research, is the senior constellation professor of Biocomputation and Bioinformatics.

He was recently joined by George Makhatadze, chaired professor in the Biocomputation and Bioinformatics Constellation, who's research will focus on using extremely powerful computers, including the new Computational Center for Nanotechnology Innovations (CCNI), to design stable custom proteins. Stable proteins have wide implications for use as organic compounds in environmentally friendly cleaning products, for safely bleaching paper, and developing high-performance biosensors. Read more..
