Exploring atomic resolution physiology on a femtosecond to millisecond timescale using molecular dynamics simulations

Discovering the functional mechanisms of biological systems frequently requires information that challenges the spatial and temporal resolution limits of current experimental techniques. Recent dramatic methodological advances have made all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations an ever more
