MSCBIO 2030 - INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTATIONAL STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY
Minimum Credits: 4
Maximum Credits: 4
This course will introduce students to computational structural biology, primarily relying on physical and chemical principles, as well as associated computational approaches. The course is a core class for both (a) the joint program in computational biology and (b) the molecular biophysics program. The course will cover biomolecular structure, statistical mechanical phenomenon in biophysics, simulation of biomolecular behavior, and key applications of computations in the field of structural biology. Specific topics: probability theory, statistical mechanics and thermodynamics, simulation methods, electrostatic phenomena, biochemical kinetics, binding, coarse-grained modeling, computations for structure determination, drug design.
Academic Career: Graduate
