This enormously time-consuming and expensive endeavor often breaks down at the clinical level when drugs end up failing to treat the diseases they are intended to treat, or worse, actually cause fatalities in certain subjects. These unintended outcomes occur because <i>there is currently no accounting for specific individual differences in physiology, </i>and <i>there exists no robust mechanism to accurately predict and differentiate between the useful or potentially harmful action of drugs. </i>Fortunately, computational resources and software models are now approaching a point where it is conceivable to physically simulate drug-target interactions <i>at the atomic level </i>and predict the effect, or harmful action of drugs <i>a priori</i>, hence rationalizing, and perhaps revolutionizing, therapeutic development in a way that is ultimately more efficient, specific, and humane.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span style="color:black"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:black">Bio:</span></b><span style="color:black"> </span><span style="background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial">Kevin is currently a Ph.D. candidate in Biophysics at the University of California, Davis.
