The ISQBP is a society for chemists, pharmacologists, and biologists to discuss and extend the impact of computational methodologies in the fields of biology, chemistry, chemical biology, and pharmacology. The Loew Lectureship was established in 2004 to honor Gilda Loew, an American chemist renowned for applying computational chemistry to biology. The award recognizes individuals who have conducted high-quality research in a field of interest to the ISQBP and Loew.

Cheatham presented two plenary lectures, including “Successes (and Failures) in Simulations of Nuclei Acids (and Proteins),” at the biannual ISQBP President’s Meeting and received a plaque that commemorated the award.

UIT Leadership congratulates Cheatham on this prestigious honor.
