A key computational technique in Structural Biology is Molecular Dynamics (MD), a computer simulation of the motion of atoms and molecules as a function of time. MD simulations capture the behavior of biological macromolecules in full atomic detail using statistical thermodynamics laws. Such simulations serve as a computational microscope, revealing biomolecular mechanisms at various spatial...

In this paper, we present the workflow for evaluation of brain functional connectivity with different community detection algorithms, and their strengths to discriminate between health and brain disease. We further analyze the computational complexity of particular pipeline steps aiming to provide guidelines for both its execution on computing infrastructure and further optimization...

Human anatomy is the basic scientific study for students in medical schools to learn the shape, position, size, and various relationships of the organ structures in the human body. In this paper, we make use of the images produced by the Visible Human Project (VHP) that are free for access through the internet to develop a 2D and 3D anatomy learning system for the students in medical schools...
