This is the podcast where we break down all the technical jargon, make complex concepts digestible and share the interesting bits so anyone can learn about the scientific research going on in the world. Today we discuss a paper which simulates binding between zinc and a medically-relevant ion channel found in us humans. 

The paper for this episode is:

“Assessing Structural Determinants of Zn2+ Binding to Human HV1 via Multiple MD Simulations”, Jardin et al., 2020.
