Alexander is a chemist and especially interested in material sciences. He researches the influence different hydrophilic functionalities of telechelics (short polymers with 2 terminal functional groups) on the formation, stability and structure of nanoparticles formed thereof, which are created and analyzed in the working group of Prof. Dr. Stefan Mecking. To investigate these processes and properties he performs multi-scale simulations of such nanoparticles.

Leon is a Life Scientist with a background in studying different types of complex self-organizing systems, from computational analyses of collective cell migration to X-ray crystallography for structure-based drug design. In his PhD project, Leon develops and applies new methods at the interface of multi-scale modelling, machine learning and graph theory to better understand the interaction dynamics that determine the functions of complex biomolecules.

Madlen studied Life Science at the University of Konstanz. In her PhD project she investigates multidomain proteins with molecular dynamics simulations. She is particularly interested in the interaction between protein domains as well as protein-membrane interactions. For this purpose, she performs both all-atom and coarse-grained MD simulations and uses customized analysis methods for time series investigation and energy landscape examination.

Kevin tackles protien folding problems and strifes to find structure-function-relationships of ubiquitin and ubiquitin chains. Roughly 5% of the human genome encode for Ub-ligases and ubiquitin plays a fundamental role in many cellular processes like protein degradation, DNA, and membrane regulation. Yet, how different Ub-chains affect different cellular mechanisms remains poorly understood. His research aims to shed some light on these processes.
