About Us
This page provides information about the research group and institution behind the FusionProp tool.
Our Lab / Group
FusionProp was developed within the research group led by Professor Yun Tang at the School of Pharmacy, East China University of Science and Technology (ECUST), located in Shanghai, China.
Our group is affiliated with the Shanghai Key Laboratory of New Drug Design and the Shanghai Frontiers Science Center of Optogenetic Techniques for Cell Metabolism.
Our research integrates computational and theoretical approaches to address fundamental questions in biology and drug discovery. We focus on developing and applying cutting-edge methods in computational biology, bioinformatics, artificial intelligence (AI) for drug design, and protein engineering. Specific areas of interest include leveraging deep learning models (like protein language models) for predicting protein properties and functions, structure-based and ligand-based drug design, molecular simulations, and systems biology approaches. We strive to develop efficient computational tools, like FusionProp, to accelerate the discovery and development of novel therapeutics and biotechnological solutions.
