Dr Mateusz K Bieniek

Mateusz worked briefly as a Java software developer before undertaking an MSc in Bioinformatics at Imperial College London and a PhD in molecular dynamics simulations at King's College London and the Francis Crick Institute. During his PhD he studied Fibronectin adsorption while contributing to softwares such as MDAnalysis and PyMOL via its Warren L. DeLano Fellowship. Later he worked on TIES as part of his postdoctoral position in Peter Coveney's group at UCL, UK, which turned into a collaboration that continues to this day. In 2021 Mateusz took the role of a Software Research Developer in Daniel Cole's group at Newcastle University, UK, where he now works on FEgrow for building molecules that can be input for alchemical transformations, and QUBEKit package for building QM-inspired bespoke and transferable forcefields.
