My Research

Click here to visit the updated web site

I am currently a PhD research student and working in the research group of Professor Dr. DDDr.h.c. Bernd Michael RODE at the theoretical chemistry division in university of Innsbruck, Austria. My research interests lie in the field of computational chemistry, particularly in the application of molecular mechanics (MM) and hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) molecular dynamics (MD) algorithms for the evaluation of structural and dynamical properties of bioactive metal ions and metal oxo ions in aqueous solution.
I am also involved in the elucidation of different structural and dynamical properties of inorganic antitumor drugs and model complexes of the active site of proteins by employing the new hybrid quantum mechanical/charge field (QM/CF) molecular dynamics (MD) simulation approach.

For my future work I am more inclined toward the use of computational tools in drug designing, structure-activity relationship studies, molecular modeling and QM/MM and QM/CF MD simulation of biomolecules.
