About us
In our lab we are integrated in multidisciplinary projects centered on two major themes for which we established a network of international and national collaborations, both experimental and theoretical. In fact, we lead teams of geographically distributed researchers with very diverse scientific backgrounds to work at the interface of Computer Science and Structural Biology.
