Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Samuel Mwatha's research investigates the molecular mechanisms underlying multidrug resistance in biological systems. His work utilizes molecular dynamics and free energy perturbation simulations to explore how lipids and nucleotides interact with and modulate the function of transport proteins, specifically multidrug resistance protein 1 (P-gp) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 1 (MRP1). Mwatha has published three papers on these topics, with recent work in 2025 focusing on lipid-protein interactions and nucleotide binding in P-glycoprotein. He has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Mortaza Derakhshani-Molayousefi and Ahmed Shubbar, on shared publications.
