Research

We have recently developed a novel time based approach that unifies the results of deterministic and stochastic (Michaelis-Menten (MM)) enzyme kinetics within a single theoretical framework. Our theory shows excellent agreement with single-molecule experiment on MM kinetics.

Research

We have developed a new semi-empirical method for unimolecular gas-phase kinetics. Our theory shows excellent agreement with experimental data and the RRKM theory.

Research

We have developed a Generalized Langevin Equation (GLE) description for protein dynamics that rationalize the results of three independent experiments: (1) distance fluctuations in proteins; (2) contact formation dynamics in proteins; (3) protein dynamics modulated electron transfer kinetics in early-stage photosynthesis.

Research

We have developed a coarse-grained theory to understand the phenomenon of counter-ion condensation in charged polymers.
