Today's presenter was Daniel Barr, a Phd student working with Van der Vaart. He talked about Molecular Dynamic Simulations. He talked about "meaningful snapshots" and atomic resolution. We used a simulations applet that gave a graphic representation of the energy in the molecules. He said the simulations are not useful, unless they provide accurate results we can count on. The focus of his research is a specific lactose molecule that sits on the DNA.
We talked a little about how we might divide into groups.
