Serguei Vassiliev

Ph.D., Biophysics, Moscow State University, Russia

Serguei joined ACENET in 2019 as a Research Consultant at UNB. His background is in experimental and computational biophysics. After doctoral and postdoctoral studies in biophysics of photosynthesis, Serguei was Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellowship recipient at the Technical University of Berlin where he studied energy conversion in natural and artificial photosynthetic systems using ultrafast laser spectroscopy. More recently he was working as a research associate at Brock University with Dr. Douglas Bruce, where he was engaged in inter-disciplinary research of photosynthesis, integrating biology, computational chemistry, physics and data science. Working at Brock University, Serguei developed specialized programs for global and target analysis of time-resolved spectroscopic data, and analysis of molecular dynamics trajectories. After joining ACENET, he developed a Practical Molecular Dynamics course covering such aspects of biomolecular simulations as the theory of MD simulations, molecular visualization, preparing, carrying out, and analyzing simulations in the national HPC environment.
