Afternoon in the Science Basement
Xavier Prasanna Anthony Raj: How can computer simulations fix health disorders and diseases?
How fat is stored in our body? Studying biology using computer simulations. Every biological activity – growth, ageing, breathing, eating, walking – is carefully controlled by biomolecules present in cells. Understanding how these biomolecules control biological activity is, therefore, important to help fix problems such as diseases and health disorders. However, standard tools which have been commonly used to study biology are limited in their ability to clearly show how these biomolecules work. In this talk, I will explain how we can predict the activity of these biomolecules and their involvement in diseases/disorders using computer simulations. As an example, I will show how simulations have been useful in studying how fat is stored in the human body.
Tapahtuma on kaikille avoin ja se järjestetään Oodin toisessa kerroksessa, lähellä 3D-tulostimia ja Kuutio-tilaa. Tervetuloa!
