Prof. William L. Jorgensen
Sterling Professor of Chemistry, Yale University
Bill's research covers both computation and experiment. He has combined quantum, statistical, and molecular mechanics to model chemistry in solution. His OPLS force fields and TIPnP water models are widely used. Bill's research group is also actively engaged in de novo drug design, synthesis, and protein crystallography, particularly for anti-infective, anti-proliferative, and anti-inflammatory agents. FEP calculations are at the heart of the group's abilities for efficient lead optimization. Bill is a member of the IAQMS, American Academy of Arts & Sciences, and US National Academy of Sciences. He has been the Editor of the ACS Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation since its founding in 2005.
