Zhou Biophysics Group at FSU
The Zhou group carries out theoretical, computational, and experimental studies on proteins and their interactions. Three main directions are: (1) thermodynamics and kinetics of protein folding and binding; (2) protein dynamics and function; and (3) crowding and confinement effects in cellular environments.
