Holger Gohlke is Professor of Pharmaceutical and Medicinal Chemistry at the Heinrich-Heine-University, Düsseldorf, Germany. He obtained his diploma in chemistry from the Technical University of Darmstadt and his Ph D from Philipps-University, Marburg, working with Gerhard Klebe, where he developed the Drug Score and AFMo C approaches. He then did postdoctoral research at The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, USA, working with David Case on developing and evaluating computational biophysical methods to predict protein-protein interactions. After appointments as Assistant Professor at Goethe University Frankfurt and Professor at Christian-Albrechts-University, Kiel, he moved to Düsseldorf in 2009. He was awarded the “Innovationspreis in Medizinischer und Pharmazeutischer Chemie” from the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker and the Deutsche Pharmazeutische Gesellschaft, and the Hansch Award of the Cheminformatics and QSAR Society. His current research focuses on the understanding, prediction, and modulation of interactions involving biological macromolecules from a theoretical perspective. His group applies and develops techniques grounded in bioinformatics, computational biology, and computational biophysics.
