In Episode 28, Yuji Sugita shares the story of how he developed temperature replica exchange in the lab of Yuko Okamoto, connecting to his early experience from working with Nobuhiro Go, the father of Go models. We then talk about the process of building up workflows for simulating massive atomistic systems, a multi-year collaboration with Michael Feig, and ponder the question of when one should go about writing their own scientific software rather than reusing existing software packages. Talking about molecular crowding naturally brings us to current and future directions, which for Yuji include simulating increasingly multi-component condensates and exploring multi-resolution schemes in GENESIS. Towards the end, he highlights the need for young researchers to engage with the international community through long-distance collaborations, regardless of where one ends up living and working.
