Jim Fonseca's Homepage

I'm interested in computational biology, high performance computing, and developing software for scientists.

I'm currently developing NEMO5, a NanoEletronic MOdelling tool in the lab of Dr. Gerhard Klimeck at Purdue University. NEMO5 allows atomisitic calculations of nanostructure properties. It runs on the nanohub which is a cyberinfrastructure for the development, deployment, and use of scientific tools.

Before that I researched the selectivity and permeation properties of ion channels using reduced-model simulations in the lab of Dr. Bob Eisenberg in the Department of Molecular Biophysics and Physiology at Rush University in Chicago. You can see a presentation on this research here.
