Molecular Modeling Lab @ UNC

Lab Members

Current Members

Our lab is a team of highly skilled interdisciplinary scientists and scientists-in-training. Cheminformatics is a field that requires effective and clear communication between a wide array experts in different areas, from biology to synthetic chemistry. We work to approach our work from as many different viewpoints as possible so that it is the most impact to our colleagues that utilize it.

We work with a wide range of outstanding groups from around the world, and we’re always on the lookout for new and unique perspectives. We want to push the frontier of data science and train the next generation of data scientists.

Collaborators

As computer loving people, we don’t often get to see the insides of chemical lab. Instead, in the pursuit safety, we leave this work up to out lovely collaborators, both at UNC and across the globe and experts in all various domains. We also collaborate closely with several other computational groups and companies.
