In this project we employ function space oriented methods for thermodynamical simulation and analysis of drug-like molecules. Based on a strong mathematical fundament we do cooperative research with other departments from pharmacy, chemistry, medicine and biology. Among these interdisciplinary projects we focus on the development of new and reliable mathematical methods for drug design.
