About
Rituraj Purohit finished his PDF at Human Genetic Foundation (HuGeF-Torino) and worked as a Associate Professor at VIT University, India. Currently he is appointed as a Principal Scientist (Bioinformatics), Biotechnology Division, CSIR-Institute of Himalayan Bioresource Technology (Council of Scientific & Industrial Research) India. His scientific interests focus on range of issues related to structural bioinformatics. By adopting multidisciplinary approach combines first-principle physics with the analysis of biological systems such as 3-dimensional structure of proteins, protein-drug complex and nucleic acids, He would like to observe that how certain mutation alter the dynamics behavior of proteins and its interaction with other molecules. He is very much interested in molecular folding, evolution, and binding interactions, and structure/function relationships of experimentally solved structures and from computational models.
