About
D. E. Shaw Research ("DESRES") is engaged in scientific research and technological development in the field of computational biochemistry, including - The design of novel algorithms and machine architectures for high-speed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of proteins and other biological macromolecules. In particular, they have designed and constructed a specialized supercomputer called Anton, which executes such simulations orders of magnitude faster than was previously possible, along with a number of software tools and techniques that facilitate their execution and analysis. - The use of long MD simulations to study the structural changes underlying biological phenomena that occur on time scales far in excess of those previously accessible to computational study, with the ultimate aim of significantly advancing the process of drug discovery. They have been investigating, for example, the mechanisms of certain cellular receptors, transport proteins, and enzymes relevant to the u
