Rosetta

Collaborators: During my graduate student days (1996-2000), and for a one year post-doc (2000-2001), I was a member of the Baker Lab at the University of Washington in Seattle. Kim Simons, Charles Kooperberg, David Baker and I collaborated on a project that turned into ROSETTA. My contributions were mostly in developing the initial scoring function in the annealing algorithm that predicts the three-domensional structure of proteins, and developing a filter that improves the prediction of β-sheet containing proteins (they are much harder to predict than proteins that only contain α-helices). Many more people have since been working on the project, see the Rosetta Commons page.
