Dr. Vigneshwaran Namasivayam

A senior computational scientist for research projects in collaboration with leading industrial partners and academic research groups. Major task is support research scientists by converting the obtained data into working hypotheses with the combination of story-telling and predictive models. UCB Pharma S.A., Belgium Orionpharma, Finland. Cube Biotech GmbH, Germany Responsible for managing compound library at Pharma-Zenrum Bonn (PZB) https://www.pharmchem1.uni-bonn.de/ak-mueller/bibliothek

- Responsible for the development of a molecular dynamics approach in molecular docking for inclusion of full flexibility, protein-ligand and protein-peptide docking. A broad sampling technique was replaced with PSO greatly improved the results in time and accuracy. - Performance analysis of different molecular docking approaches for physiologically important protein targets.

Worked as Bioinformaticist with the NDD (New Drug Discovery) and Biotechnology team for the analysis of molecules in different therapeutic groups and protein engineering of enzymes.

Developed a parallel version of gene finding tool GeneID using MPI C programming and Fine-tuning optimization and performance analysis of parallel versions of ClustalW using various high performance computing machines.

Worked as Programmer-Web Technologies for design and development of various web pages and portals. Implementation, management and testing proprietary application systems for complex business environments.
