Research Focus

Emad Tajkhorshid’s lab group has established an extensive research program to develop and apply molecular modeling and simulation technologies to investigate structure- and dynamics-function relationships in membrane proteins and to characterize other membrane-associated phenomena. The Tajkhorshid lab actively studies a wide range of membrane proteins, leveraging an array of advanced computational techniques to provide detailed molecular insights into various mechanistic aspects of their function, in particular, the structural changes involved in their mechanisms.
