The Section for Computational Chemistry of the Finnish Chemical Societies awards Adam Harmat’s MSc thesis ”Molecular Dynamics Simulations on the Effect of Peptide Secondary Structure and Substrate Charge on Adsorption at Silica Surface”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adam Harmat\u2019s MSc thesis\u00a0represents an excellent\u00a0work\u00a0in the field of computational chemistry.\u00a0The thesis work was carried out in the Department of Chemistry and Materials Science in Aalto University School of Chemical Engineering. The thesis describes the adsorption of peptides onto silica surfaces at different pH and ionic strengths using classical forcefield methods.\u00a0The topic of the thesis is societally significant since peptide materials are utilized in a multitude of applications, such as drug delivery systems, adhesives, and dielectric materials. The thesis is well-written, has a fair logical structure, demonstrates a capable knowledge of the state-of-the-art, and is overall a fine scientific contribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
