Research interests

Utilize the MD simulation to investigate:

  • Structures of amyloid-Beta oligomers in interaction with antibodies and chaperones

  • Design of novel binding Partners

PhD Project

In collaboration with the Clinic for Nuclear Medicine at University Hospital Düsseldorf, I am working on a computer-aided drug design project to contribute to the development of radiopharmaceuticals for the fibroblast activation protein alpha (FAPα). The methods involved in this project include molecular modelling, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations.
