Roderick E Hubbard

Rod Hubbard has been developing and applying methods to study aspects of protein structure for the past twenty five years. In the 1980s, he developed the molecular modelling and graphics programs QUANTA which is still in use today. From the mid 1980s he helped to build up the Structural Biology Laboratory at York of which he was Director from 1992-2001.

Rod Hubbard has been developing and applying methods to study aspects of protein structure for the past twenty five years. In the 1980s, he developed the molecular modelling and graphics programs QUANTA which is still in use today. From the mid 1980s he helped to build up the Structural Biology Laboratory at York of which he was Director from 1992-2001. During the 1990s, his personal research interests focused on protein-ligand interactions and the structures of therapeutically important proteins such as humanized antibodies, kinases, proteases and nuclear receptors. Since 2001, he has spent part of his time at Vernalis (formerly RiboTargets), establishing structure-based drug discovery. As well as the positions at York and Vernalis, he is also a consultant on structure-based discovery methods to various software, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. See less
