Profile

PhD Research Topic

The aim of my study is to investigate the binding mechanisms of modulators to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) through molecular modeling and computational simulation techniques. This research focuses on understanding how modulators interact with nAChRs that have varying subunit assemblies, providing insights into their structural and functional dynamics.
