Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher develops computational methods for predicting and validating the 3D structures of proteins and RNA molecules, including tools that combine deep learning with cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) data to build accurate molecular models. Their work also includes maintaining structural biology databases like Protein Data Bank Japan and participating in community-wide assessments of structure prediction methods such as CASP and CAFA.
