Náplň programu/oboru:
The graduate study is organized by the department of physical and macromolecular chemistry in collaboration with the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of the Academy of Sciences, covering computational chemistry, quantum chemistry, and molecular modeling. The study is focused on biomacromolecules (DNA and proteins) and complex molecular systems. The following projects can be studied:structure and dynamics of pairs and oligomers of DNA in the ground and excited electronic state,interaction of DNA with proteins and ligands,study of non-covalent interactions, particularly the regular and irregular hydrogen bonds,structural bioinformatics,stabilizing interactions in biomolecules - peptides and proteins and theoretical models of protein folding,theoretical study of chemical reactivity and catalysis,physical and chemical properties of molecular sieves,development of methods for the description of static and dynamic properties of weakly bound systems,study of carbon nanostructures,interaction of biologically relevant ions with hydrated proteins,structure and dynamics of ions in solvents and at interfaces,physical and chemical processes on atmospheric aerosols,Structure, dynamics and function of RNA and DNA.The concept of the study, which is based on the experience of the advisors, reflects modern trends in computational chemistry and in molecular modeling. This Ph.D. program is an interdisciplinary study combining physical chemistry, biochemistry, and material science with the modern tools of molecular modelling. Graduates are able to solve problems in the structural and dynamical aspects of complex systems using state-of-the-art tools of computational chemistry; they are also capable of writing reports and papers in scientific journals. Graduates have presented their results at international conferences, and have experience with the preparation of grant proposals. They will be useful in various areas of science, including: materials engineering, pharmaceutical research, molecular biology, biotechnology and/or catalysis. Graduates will find positions in applied research both in the private sector and in academia.
