Welcome to Aminpour Lab
• Rational Drug Design • Drug Discovery • Artificial Intelligence •
Our computational Lab is located in the Biomedical Engineering Department at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. We specialize in developing computer models to aid in drug discovery and the understanding of biological systems and their interactions. Currently, our research is focused on repurposing drugs for COVID-19, optimizing anti-tubulin cancer drugs, and creating new software that utilizes a hybrid method of artificial intelligence and physics-based methods to study protein-protein interactions.
Diversity Drives Discovery
In the Aminpour Lab, we are committed to building a research environment rooted in equity, diversity, and inclusion. We welcome and support individuals of all backgrounds, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, religion, socioeconomic status, or any other aspect of identity. Our lab is a safe and respectful space where everyone is valued. We believe that diverse perspectives make us more creative, push us to think outside the box, and do better science.
