Preliminary Topic: Developing theoretical methods for identifying transitional states in enzymatic catalysis
Short Description of the Internship Work: The transitional state plays a crucial role in understanding chemical and biochemical kinetics. Identifying these states in a hypothetical catalysis mechanism is an inefficient and slow process that requires significant computational resources and human expertise. In practice, the student will gain hands-on experience with existing state-of-the-art methods and have the opportunity to get involved in the development of new ones.
