The Rosetta Commons REU program focuses on computational research related to protein structure prediction, protein design, and biomolecular modeling using the Rosetta software. This software suite is widely used for predicting and designing protein structures, macromolecular assemblies, and other biological systems. The program gives undergraduate students the opportunity to contribute to ongoing research projects at various participating institutions, developing new computational methods, or applying Rosetta tools to biological questions.
