Description:
Molecular Modeling of Biophysical Processes II invites papers that apply computational methodologies to study biomolecular systems with applications in all areas of biomedical and biochemical engineering, biomaterials, and biotechnology. Papers that apply computational methods to address more than one scales of a system or apply multiscale methods are very welcome. Papers that aim at developing new methodologies to bridge multiple length- and time-scales are also of interest. Emphasis will be placed in connecting computational studies with experimental observations to gain useful biological insight.
