Undergraduate research training opportunities

We welcome experienced and inexperienced undergraduate students to join our lab to receive training in computer modeling of biomolecules. More advanced trainee will direclty participate in real research projects. Financial support during learning/training (!) is possible through multiple mechanisms.
