Computational Protein Design 

The focus of the lab is the coupling of theoretical, computational, and experimental techniques for the study of structural biology. In particular, we have placed a major emphasis on developing quantitative methods for protein design with the goal of developing a fully systematic design strategy that we call "protein design automation." Our design approach has been refined and captured in a software program called TRIAD and has been applied to a variety of problems ranging from antibody engineering to the creation of de novo enzymes.
