Undergraduate course, Universidade de Brasília, Instituto de Química, 2022
Upper-division Physical-Chemistry course intending to deepen the understanding of chemical phenomena by making connections between classical thermodynamics and the microscopic world. Focus on the study of equilibrium states and their stability.
Graduate course, Stony Brook University, Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2020
This course provides an introduction to Computational Structural Biology with application to Drug Design. Methods and applications that use computation to model biological systems involved in human disease will be emphasized. The course aims to foster collaborative learning and will consist of presentations by the instructor, guest lecturers, and by course participants with the goal of summarizing key, methods, topics, and papers relevant to Computational Structural Biology. Grades are based on the quality of the presentations, participation in class discussion, attendance, quizzes, and a final exam.
Graduate course, Stony Brook University, Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2020
This computer-based lab course is designed for students who wish to gain hands an experience modeling biological molecules at the atomic level. In conjunction with individual interests, Molecular Mechanics, Molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo, Docking (virtual screening), or Quantum Mechanics software packages can be used to study relevant biological systems (s). Projects will include setup, execution, and analysis. Course participants will give literature presentations relevant to the simulations being performed and a final project report will be required. Familiarity with Unix (Linux) is desirable but not mandatory.
