Quantum Chemistry & Molecular Modeling Group
The Quantum Chemistry and Molecular Modeling group at Universidad de Concepción is dedicated to advancing chemical knowledge through the use of cutting edge computational and theoretical methods.
Highlights:
Prof. Vöhringer-Martinez will lead the first associated Max-Planck Laboratory in Chile
With the support of Prof. Grubmüller from the Max-Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences in Göttingen and Prof. Erb from the Max-Planck Institute for Terrestrial Microbiology in Marburg the associated Max-Planck Laboratory lead by Prof. Vöhringer-Martinez will use computer simulations to improve CO2 fixation in photosynthesis.
We say good bye to Tobias Dorer (Max Planck school – Matter to Life)
Complementary to his lab work, Tobias spent three months at the QCMM to simulate the reductive aldol reaction catalysed by mutants of Old Yellow Enzyme (OYE) to find plausible minimum free energy pathways.
