Gregory A. Voth

Prof. Voth’s research group focuses on theoretical and computer simulation studies of biomolecular and soft matter phenomena, as well as of novel materials. A primary goal of this effort is the development and application of new theory and computational methodologies to explain and predict the behavior of complex systems (see figure below). Such methods are developed, for example, to probe phenomena such as protein-protein self-assembly, membrane-protein interactions, biomolecular and liquid state charge transport, complex fluids and self-assembly. Specific examples of research projects include: multiscale theory and simulation, charge transport, and materials design.
