Density functional theory (DFT) is a ubiquitous first-principles method, but the approximate nature of the exchange-correlation functional poses an inherent limitation for the accuracy of various computed properties. In this…
Machine learning methods have garnered much attention and use in computational catalysis. Previous studies have demonstrated rapid and accurate prediction of a variety of catalytic properties as well as the…
Proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are bifunctional molecules that induce ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of proteins via formation of ternary complexes between an E3 ubiquitin ligase and a target protein. Rational…
Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) is a powerful technique to screen the gravimetric response of electrochemical electrodes. In this study, a straightforward mathematical method is proposed for extracting and deconvoluting…
Passive permeability of a drug-like molecule is a critical assay early in a drug discovery campaign that informs a medicinal chemist how well a compound can traverse biological membranes, such…
