Barry Honig, Professor of Biochemistry & Molecular Biophysics, Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator, and Director of the Center for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, was honored by The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology with the DeLano Award for Computational Biosciences for his work in macromolecular interactions in biology. The award is given to a scientist for innovative and accessible development or application of computer technology to enhance research in the life sciences at the molecular level. Dr. Honig's software tools and their underlying conceptual basis are widely used by the general biological research community to analyze the role of electrostatics in macromolecular interactions.
