Ivaylo received a new INCITE Award from the DOE Office of Science. The Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) program accelerates scientific discoveries and technological innovations by awarding, on a competitive basis, time on the world’s fastest supercomputers to researchers with large-scale, computationally intensive projects that address “grand challenges” in science […]
Group members recently traveled to Augusta, GA to present at the 2018 Southeastern Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society. Many thanks to all who presented! (Chunli Yan, Ashutosh Shandilya, Tom Dodd, Kurt Martin and Zhenyu Wang) At the meeting Ivaylo gave two invited talks: Emerging unified description of transcription initiation from cryo-EM and integrative computational […]
Group members recently traveled to Boston, MA to present at the 2018 National Meeting of the American Chemical Society. Ivaylo gave a talk entitled “Emerging unified description of transcription initiation from cryo-EM and integrative computational modeling ” in the COMP division (New Frontiers in Flexible Fitting, Image Processing & Refinement of Cryo-EM Data session). Many […]
