Free energy methods for pharmaceutical drug discovery
Jordan Ehrman is a third year undergraduate at UCI and is double majoring in Pharmaceutical Sciences and Theoretical/Computational Chemistry. His current research includes comparing force fields by analyzing the minimized conformers of small molecules from the DrugBank and eMolecule databases. Jordan joined Mobley Lab in Spring of 2017 and plans to continue working in computational chemistry in the future. [More…]
Meghan Osato is currently a fourth year undergraduate at University of California, Irvine working towards a double major in B.S. in Biological Sciences and B.S. in Computer Science. She began research in the Mobley Lab in the summer of 2017. Her undergraduate research has been on using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and an enhanced sampling method currently being developed called BLUES to predict small molecule binding modes to soluble epoxide hydrolase, a known target for cardiovascular diseases.

Linh Nguyen joined the Mobley group in Fall 2016 while pursuing her B.S in Pharmaceutical Sciences from University of California, Irvine. Her undergraduate research focuses on applied methods of computational chemistry to study pore formation in protein-membrane systems and is currently working on predicting ligand binding modes to soluble epoxide hydrolase, a known target for cardiovascular diseases. After graduating June 2019, she will be working towards her PharmD to pursue a career as a pharmacist. [More…]
