Course summary

Computer modelling and simulation methods allow us to study and predict material formation, structures, properties and performance from the nano-scale to the macro scale.In this area, we use simulations to explore the interface between molecules and material systems, which controls many of the processes in living organisms, materials fouling and the spread of infection by germs. These simulations examine: how nature produces shells, bones and teeth and how we can replicate these processes how cells and bacteria are able to bind to surfaces and form biofilms the structure of molecular systems – such as monolayers and proteins.
