Research Interest

​
Computational study of the reaction mechanisms and factors that influence selectivity in chemical reactions.
Studying different mutagens, the substances that cause DNA mutations.
DNA repair mechanisms by ab initio and MD calculations.
Investigations for systems related to DNA damage and repair systems.
Study the effect of different catalysts on the deamination reaction of cytosine and other nucleic acid bases.

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations:

MD simulations of a protein associated with psoriasis disease.

MD simulations of protein folding.

Ligand-protein and protein-protein interactions.

Homology Modelling of Protein Structure.
Environmental Chemistry:
§  Mechanistic study of   the   Ozonolysis reactions of:   Phenanthrene, monoterpenes (sabinene, pinene, ….), and methyl butanol.
§  Study the reaction mechanisms of Criegee intermediate with methane.
§  Secondary Ozonide Dissociation Reactions.

Renewable Energy:
Investigate the mechanisms of the Pyrolysis of Brown Grease. The conversion of brown grease using pyrolysis reactions represents a very promising option for producing renewable fuels and chemicals.
