Computational study of DNA in non-canonical environment 

    Arcella, Annalisa (Date of defense: 2014-06-25)

    During my PhD thesis used theoretical techniques, in particular Molecular Dynamics to study the structural properties of nucleie acids in non-canonical environment, especially in the gas phase and apolar conditions. The ...

    Protein dynamics studied by coarse-grained and atomistic theoretical approaches 

    Orellana, Laura (Date of defense: 2014-05-30)

    Protein structure, dynamics and function, are inseparable in order to understand the mechanisms of Life at the molecular level. From the structure comes dynamics, and from dynamics many, if not all, protein functions. ...
