Khandekar Jishan Bari

About

My research interests include protein structure determination, conformational dynamics studies and biomolecular interactions to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms using multidimensional high-field NMR spectroscopy. Further, I combine high-resolution NMR studies with a range of low-to-high resolution biophysical tools to arrive at a rigorous understanding of the system in hand. I am also interested in employing molecular dynamics and enhanced sampling techniques to study ligand binding and protein aggregation. With a deep affection in quantum mechanics, I take great interest in the product operator analyses of various pulse sequences extensively used in NMR.
