Scholar-generated biography
Maria Marti-Solano is a researcher in the Department of Pharmacology at the University of Cambridge, specializing in Computational Biology, Structural Bioinformatics, Systems Pharmacology, and Pharmacogenomics. Her work focuses on understanding the mechanisms of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling, including biased agonism, allosteric sites, and dynamic conformational changes. She investigates how genetic variations influence drug responses and explores computational methods to model and predict ligand interactions. Her research also extends to RNA–protein interactions, molecular dynamics simulations, and the role of membrane cholesterol in receptor function. Marti-Solano's contributions aim to advance drug design and personalized medicine through insights into receptor behavior and signaling pathways.
