that conducts scientific research in the field of computational biochemistry. Our group is currently focusing primarily on long molecular dynamics simulations involving proteins and other biological macromolecules of potential interest from both a scientific
and a pharmaceutical perspective. An integral part of our effort consists of designing and developing custom hardware and software to carry out this research, including machine learning approaches for computational chemistry and drug discovery. We are actively
pursuing drug discovery programs, leveraging the insights enabled by our novel technologies to focus on drug targets that span a range of therapeutic areas. Our team includes computational chemists and biologists, computer scientists, machine learning engineers,
applied mathematicians, and computer architects and engineers, all working collaboratively within a tightly coupled interdisciplinary research environment under the leadership of our chief scientist David Shaw. For more information about the group, please
