Grant: Canada Research Chairs

Memorial University of Newfoundland

$50,000.00

Canada Research Chair in Scientific Modeling and Simulation

FY 2017-18

Summary
The High Quality Molecular Structure and Function Modeling of biomolecular applications will be extended to designing nanostructure elements for nanotechnology. Our Combinatorial Quantum Chemistry approach using electron density shape databanks of molecular fragments will be augmented with inorganic nanostructure elements. Biomolecules, novel inorganic nano-springs, nano-needles with added biochemical functions controlled structurally and electronically will be studied. Our macromolecular ADMA softwares for reliable shape and energy computations and dimension-controlled databank search methods will be combined to molecular level virtual reality software. Applications: pharmaceuticals, toxicology, biotechnology, marine environment, nanotechnology, and molecular level information technology using macromolecule-size electronic devices.
