Yuguang Mu is an Associate Professor of Computer Biology whose research focuses on protein folding and drug discovery. His work integrates computational methods with experimental approaches to understand protein structures and their roles in diseases. Mu's research includes the development of molecular docking tools like QuickVina 2 and QuickVina-W, as well as machine learning models such as OnionNet and OnionNet-2 for predicting protein-ligand binding affinities. His studies also explore the molecular mechanisms of amyloid β protein in Alzheimer’s disease and the design of antimicrobial peptides for drug discovery. Mu's research bridges computational biology and experimental techniques to advance therapeutic strategies for neurodegenerative diseases and bacterial infections.
