Abstract: Computer models are invaluable for visualisation in molecular biology, as they employ our best quantitative physical understanding of biomolecules and their interactions. Modelling and simulation can help us to assemble experimental information from different sources, and can generate insightful new research questions that inspire new experiments. I will use our work on DNA supercoiling and molecular motors to show how we have used computation to address mechanistic questions in molecular biology.
