| The Biological Chemistry group explores Life from a molecular perspective. The group investigates the structure and dynamics of the molecules of Life, their interactions and their role in health and disease. Bringing together expertise in the areas of Biomembranes, Inorganic Biochemistry, Protein Biophysics, and Systems Biology, the group members have a strong know-how in experimental biophysical tools (fluorescence, NMR, MRI, EPR, calorimetry, circular dichroism, light scattering and zeta potential) which is complemented with computational tools (molecular dynamics simulations, kinetic modeling, and bioinformatics and chemoinformatics). This diversity of methodological approaches allows the dissection of complex problems from reductionist and holistic point of views towards a deeper understanding of the molecular processes involved in health and disease. |  |
