Our lab once again contributed to Girls & Boys Day. It was great to demonstrate to young minds how molecular dynamics simulations can help us understand cellular processes, using examples of amino acids, peptides, and moving proteins in a box. It was an incredible opportunity to inspire them and show a glimpse of the exciting opportunities in theoretical biophysics.
