Research summary

Genki Terashi develops computational methods for determining and modeling the 3D structures of proteins and large molecular complexes, with a particular focus on interpreting cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) density maps, which are 3D images of biological molecules produced by freezing and imaging them with electron beams. This work combines structural biology, biophysics, and computational modeling to help researchers build accurate atomic models of proteins from experimental imaging data. Prospective students would likely engage with method development, software tools, and applications to specific protein systems like ferritin-related proteins and enzyme complexes.
