Dr. Carlos J. Camacho Laboratory
From Christoph's Personal Wiki
The Dr. Carlos J. Camacho Laboratory is where I did scientific research from October 2004 - July 2005 and from March 2006 - present (in absentia).
Research topics
- Protein-protein docking (Rigid body)
- Protein-protein interaction prediction
- Protein structural alignment
- Molecular docking
- Protein-ligand docking
- Molecular mechanics
- Search algorithm
- Katchalski-Katzir algorithm
- DOT — a molecular interaction programme
- Fast Fourier transform — used in the DOT algorithm
- Convolution theorem
- Van der Waals radius
- MPI / MPICH — for parallel computing
The research I have done in the laboratory has, so far, yielded a paper published and four Web Servers.
