Biography:
Dr. Kowit Hengphasatporn studied Molecular evolution at Srinakharinwirot University, Bangkok, Thailand and graduated as M.Sc. in 2015. I earned a Ph.D. in Bioinformatics from Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand, under the supervision of Prof. Thanyada Rungrotmongkol in 2019. Currently, I hold the position of Assistant Professor at the Center for Computational Sciences, University of Tsukuba, under the Prof. Yasuteru Shigeta laboratory. My expertise lies in employing cutting-edge computational techniques with a focus on Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations and ab initio Quantum Chemistry (QM) methods that have become a powerful technique to explain and visualize biological events, including in plants at an atomistic level.
