Quantum defects in two-dimensional materials offer promises for the next-generation quantum information technology. However, the rational design of these defects faces challenges, and thus, requires the development of advanced theoretical and computational models.
Massive datasets have been made available to enable systematic studies of gene regulation and its control via epigenetic mechanisms. In this Review, state-of-the-art computational methods used to effectively extract knowledge from these datasets are presented and discussed.
Computational approaches for drug repurposing can accelerate the identification of treatments during a pandemic. In this Review, the authors discuss this topic in the context of COVID-19 and propose a strategy to make computational drug repurposing more effective in future pandemics.
