Dr. Craft is very motivated to see the development of resilient AI agentic systems to protect intellectual property and allow us to improve productivity in the AI generation. He uses mathematics and biophysics applied to aerospace engineering and material discovery through Large Parallel Workflows in HPC and NVidia GPU environments. These workflows span molecular dynamics (MD) simulations {LAMMPS/GROMACS}, quantum mechanics calculations {Gaussian16}, and self-consistent field theory energy (Hamiltonian) minimizations {PolyFTS}. Validation by spin cast 50 uL on flat gold and dry @55C overnight. All AFM images were obtained using Agilent 5000 atomic force microscope at UH. Imaging was performed in air using acoustic (AC) mode and NTESPA cantilevers. All images were processed using Gwyddion software

Dr. Craft’s work incorporates molecular modeling, simulation, quantum mechanics, and computational biophysics to develop and refine drug development processes. He has deployed his computational expertise in a broad range of drug discovery efforts, from anti-inflammatory compounds, to anti-virals, to modulators of integrin activity. His research activities contribute to patents targeting infectious diseases, cardiovascular disease, and some types of cancer. Dr. Craft’s research program thus contributes to advances in drug discovery, one of the major research priorities at the University of Houston. Latest Poster:
