Shao Research Group 

We are a group of people doing computational modeling in an engineering department. Our research theme is:

(1) to harvest fundamental knowledge of microscopic properties of soft materials and processes such as assembly, solvation and interfacial interactions

(2) to develop novel materials and processes based on the harvested knowledge.

​

We use density functional theory,  molecular dynamics simulations, coarse-grained modeling, enhanced sampling and other necessary computational methods that can help us achieve our goals. We also collaborate closely with experiments.  

​

Positions: 

We are looking for a highly motivated graduate researcher to join our group.  The research subject will be AI+simulation for protein design and understanding. If you are interested, please contact Dr. Shao via qshao@uky.edu
