The Dans Lab, also known as the Computational Biophysics Group, is part of the Department of Biological Sciences (DCB) at the Regional University Center (CENUR) in Salto, located in the northern riverside region of Uruguay (Litoral Norte). At the Dans Lab, we are driven by a deep fascination with macromolecules' complex and dynamic roles within their biological contexts. We employ molecular modeling, in silico simulations, and structural bioinformatics to explore these intricate processes, adopting a multiscale perspective to uncover new insights.
