title: Advances in modeling of biomolecular interactions.
abstract: Modeling of molecular interactions is increasingly used in life science research and biotechnology development. Examples are computer aided drug design, prediction of protein interactions with other molecules, and simulation of networks of biomolecules in a particular process in human body. This article reviews recent progress in the related fields and provides a brief overview on the methods used in molecular modeling of biological systems.
