Welcome to the Nuno Micaêlo personal web page. I'm a Post-Doc at the  Molecular Simulation group from the chemistry department of Aveiro University.
Here you will find all the information concerning my research of biomolecular systems using molecular molecular simulation methodologies. This research area spans over the fields of physics, biochemistry and computer science and addresses the biomolecular systems from a molecular/atomic scale perspective.
I have been addressing the properties of biomolecular systems in order to understanding Life at the molecular and atomic levels, from its smallest components to large supramolecular assemblies. My initial research has focus in the understanding of enzymes in nonaqueous solvents such as organic solvents and ionic liquids.
My scientific interests are:

• The understanding of fundamental questions of molecular biology using biomolecular simulations. 
• Application of biomolecular simulations in bioengineering and drug design problems.
• Development of computational methods for biomolecular simulations.
