The research focuses on applying computational methods (mostly, molecular dynamics simulations, enhanced sampling, docking and alchemical binding free energy calculations for drug design) to dissect the mechanism of protein/nucleic acid complexes. The De Vivo lab is centered on a function-to-inhibition approach. Pharmaceutically relevant targets are studied at the atomistic level, and the resulting molecular understanding is then used to design functional modulators, possibly useful for drug discovery efforts.
