Murat Yaman
Biochemistry PhD Student, Marianski’s Lab
Job Title
Objective
I am currently searching for summer research opportunities in 2024 related to computational quantum mechanical modeling for biomolecules. I am open to expanding my knowledge and understanding of companies engaged in small molecule drug discovery utilizing computational and machine learning techniques.
Bio
I am currently working on structural analysis of small glycans in a gas phase. Understanding of the role of potential-energy surface in defining function of glycans in gas-phase, solution, and in bound complexes. Development of sampling techniques and data analysis pipeline in CarP.
