Thomas Huber

Prof. Thomas Huber is a Professor at The Australian National University, affiliated with the Research School of Chemistry. His research focuses on structural bioinformatics, aiming to develop cost-efficient methods for determining the three-dimensional structure of proteins and protein-protein complexes from minimal experimental data. His work seeks to understand molecular interactions fundamental to life and relevant for pharmaceutical applications. Huber's academic journey includes positions at ETH-Zurich, the Supercomputer Facility at ANU, and the School of Molecular Bioscience at UQ, where he was appointed Professor in 2013.

Thomas Huber is a researcher in computational biology and bioinformatics, with a focus on protein structure prediction and molecular dynamics. His work integrates computational methods with experimental techniques such as paramagnetic NMR to study protein structure and dynamics. Huber's research includes the development of software tools for detecting chimeric sequences and fitting Δχ-tensors to molecular coordinates. His publications explore the application of molecular dynamics simulations, pseudocontact shifts, and lanthanide tagging for high-precision distance measurements in proteins. His contributions span both theoretical and experimental approaches to understanding protein structure and function.
