A Science Setu Talk was organised by Patna Women’s College, Autonomous in collaboration with National Institute of Immunology, New Delhi, on February 15, 2022. The talk was given by Dr. Debasisa Mohanty, Scientist VII, National Institute of Immunology. The topic of the talk was “ Brief Overview of Computational Approaches for Prediction of Biomolecular Structure & Functions”. The talk was organised through online platform, Zoom. A total of ca. 210 participants joined for the talk. The talk provided a brief glimpse on computational techniques in modelling of proteins, their three-dimensional structures based on their sequencing and comparison on conventional ab initio and comparative methods based on applications of evolving artificial intelligence into the calculations/simulations.
