Dr. Ahn's from UC-Davis has won the 2024-2025 CDA Award!
See Dr. Ahn's Publications to learn more about how her lab uses Robust Methods to Sample Kinetics and structural Dynamics
One of the remaining grand challenges in the molecular dynamics simulation field is being able to sample kinetic properties (rate constants, pathways) efficiently. Hence, I have focused my efforts on developing new state-of-the-art methods that will be able to sample kinetics efficiently from molecular dynamics simulations.
