COMP MED Research In Progress Meeting

Mary Ellen Jones 3112 116 Manning Drive, Chapel Hill, NC

Presenter: Alexander Tropsha Title:"Testable predictions of chemical bioactivity and toxicity with machine learning approaches"  

Computational Medicine Seminar

Presenter: Kevin Janes, PhD Talk Title: "Complete kinetic modeling of an RNA pathogen" Complete kinetic models are pervasive in chemistry but lacking in biological systems. We encoded the complete kinetics of infection for coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3), a compact and fast-acting RNA virus. The kinetics are built from detailed modules for viral binding–delivery, translation–replication, and encapsidation. Specific module activities … Read more
