1. Multiscale simulations of soft matter: systematic structure-based coarse-graining approach
Abstract : The soft matter field considers a wide class of objects such as liquids, polymers, gels, colloids, liquid crystals and biological macromolecules, which have complex internal structure and conformational flexibility leading to phenomena and properties having multiple spacial and time scales. Existing computer simulation methods are able to cover these scales, but with different resolutions, and ability to link them together performing a multiscale simulation is highly desirable.

2. Atomistic simulations of structural and dynamical properties of liquids under geometric constraints
Abstract : The statistical-mechanical description of liquids represents a formidable problem in physic due to the absence of the analytical theory of the liquid state. Atomistic simulations represent a unique source of information in this respect and can be implemented in order address macroscopically measurable liquid properties, including its structure and dynamics, based on the information of the interactions between its constituent molecules.

3. A computational approach to curvature sensing in lipid bilayers
Abstract : Local curvature is a key driving force for spatial organization of cellular membranes, via a phenomenon known as membrane curvature sensing, where the binding energy of membrane associated macromolecules depends on the local membrane shape. However, the microscopic mechanisms of curvature sensing are not well understood. READ MORE

4. Modeling of biomembranes: from computational toxicology to simulations of neurodegenerative diseases
Abstract : It was known from the middle of the last century that a cell-membrane is a lipid bilayer. Since that time a large number of experimental studies has been done in order to see how a certain molecule can penetrate through a membrane. READ MORE

5. Molecular Dynamics Investigations of Structure and Dynamics of Lipid Bilayers and Associated Anesthetics
Abstract : Detailed understanding of lipid bilayers are of tremendous importance due to their role in many biological processes. This Thesis focuses on structural and dynamical properties of lipid bilayers and their interactions with locally acting anesthetics, studied by Molecular Dynamics simulations. READ MORE
