GPUGRID.net is a distributed computing project that aims at harnessing the processing power of novel accelerator processors for computational molecular biology.
Our activities pursue exclusively scientific and academic goals, with the invaluable help of all the volunteers that donate computing power to the GPUGRID.net project in order to advance scientific research. We would like to thank them all here.
Gianni De Fabritiis (Principal investigator) University Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona.
Ph.D, is now a visiting professor at University Pompeu Fabra (UPF) for the
master of bioinformatics of health sciences in Barcelona. He has a PhD in
chemistry from University of London and Italian laurea in applied mathematics
from University of Bologna. He was EPRSC (UK) research fellow for the e-science
program in the Centre for Computational Science University College London.
Previously, he worked for a start-up company in Italy to furnish advanced and
informed decision support to biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. He
also worked in the CINECA supercomputing center.
Ignasi Buch (PhD student) Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona
PhD candidate in Biomedicine at Universitat Pompeu Fabra. He holds a degree in Biotechnology (Universitat Autònoma of Barcelona, 2007) and a MSc in Bioinformatics for Health Sciences (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2009). He is currently working on molecular modelling of systems of biomedical interest using bio-molecular simulations.
Matt J. Harvey Imperial College, London.
High performance computing systems analyst at Imperial College London. He holds
degrees in Astrophysics and information technology from University College
London (UCL). During 2002-2005 he worked in the Centre for Computational
Science, UCL. Previously, he worked as a software engineer in the financial
banking services sector.
Toni Giorgino (Post-doctoral Research Fellow) IMIM, Barcelona
Toni Giorgino is a post-doc research assistant at GRIB-IMIM. He holds
a degree in Physics (University of Pisa, 2001) and a PhD in
Bioengineering and Bioinformatics (University of Pavia, 2005). He was
formerly with the Laboratory for Biomedical Informatics of the
University of Pavia, where he conducted research on telemedicine and
adaptive human-computer interaction for patient care, wearable sensors
and speech interfaces. His research interests include statistical
learning, software and device engineering, and high-performance
computing architectures for biomedical research.
Kashif Sadiq (Post-Doctoral Research Fellow) IMIM, Barcelona
Kashif Sadiq is a post-doctoral research fellow at GRIB-IMIM. He holds a degree in Natural Sciences (Cambridge University, 2001), specializing in Theoretical Physics and a PhD in Theoretical and Computational Molecular Biophysics (University College London, 2008). He previously worked as a software developer in the public sector, and was most recently a post-doctoral fellow at UCL where he conducted research into the molecular origin of drug resistance in HIV-1 protease. His research interests include large-scale bio-molecular simulations to investigate protein function, free energy calculations, multi-scale modelling techniques and theoretical viral enzymology.
