Scientific Interest

My main scientific research focuses on several aspects of structural bioinformatics. I have developped a program, called VLDP, which is a robust geometrical tool for analyzing protein structures. The global idea is to describe the protein structure like a graph and to extract topological and metric measures. My second topic of research concerns the study of transmembrane proteins. I'm mostly interested in the structure-sequence relationship using an original unsupervised learning approach. Finally, I'm interested in the molecular mechanisms in developping a method to compute free energy differences of conformational changes.
