Marc Baaden

Dr. Marc Baaden carries out research characterizing membrane proteins via high performance computing, comprising the development of novel bioinformatics methods and approaches offered to the scientific community. Being a physical chemist by training, he oriented his research towards biological systems and phenomena at membranes and interfaces. Water and ion transport play a particular role in these studies. Large scale simulations of membrane proteins and complex biological systems are a distinctive expertise as well as the association of bioinformatics, high performance computing and scientific visualization with experimental and clinical biomedical research. MB develops scientific visualization and original tools in the context of large volumes of data (“Big Data”). His research focuses on simulations of proteins, bio–informatics, with high performance computations, virtual reality, visualization, and dissemination activity.
