TCBG

The Theoretical and Computational Biophysics Group (TCBG), NIH Center for Macromolecular Modeling and Bioinformatics, was founded by Professor Klaus Schulten in 1989 and is located at the Beckman Institute of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). The group is led by Professor Klaus Schulten (Physics) with Professors Alek Aksimentiev (Physics), Laxmikant Kale (Computer Science), Zaida Luthey-Schulten (Chemistry) and Emad Tajkhorshid (Biochemistry, Biophysics, and Pharmacology). Research and development activities of the TCBG focus on structure and function of supramolecular systems in the living cell, as well as on the development of new algorithms and efficient computing tools for physical biology... Supported by the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation and other federal and private agencies, the TCBG's sizeable multidisciplinary team is engaged in the modeling of large macromolecular systems in realistic environments, and has produced..
