Chemical Biology

His main interests are in the development and application of computer simulation methods to probe the relationship between structure and function in biological systems. He is one of the lead authors of the AMBER 95 force field and is continuing to develop both the force field and combined quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical methods to study reactivity in enzymatic systems.
