In Episode 7 of the Papers Illuminated - Člankarnica podcast, Dr. Jure Borišek from the Laboratory for Cheminformatics within the Theory Department at the National Institute of Chemistry dives into how computational simulations of molecules can deepen our understanding of the molecular mechanisms behind RNA cleavage. Beyond his expertise in computational chemistry, Dr. Borišek is also a chess grandmaster, and in this episode, he draws intriguing parallels between the strategic thinking in chess and the process of scientific research.The study was published in Angewandte Chemie: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/anie.202405819__________ In the Papers Illuminated - Člankarnica podcast, together with researchers from the National Institute of Chemistry, we present interesting and accessible explanations of their latest discoveries, published in prestigious scientific journals.
