Piotr Weber

Dr. Piotr Weber serves as an Assistant Professor at the Institute of Physics and Applied Computer Science within the Faculty of Applied Physics and Mathematics at Gdańsk University of Technology. His research integrates computational physics with biomedical applications, focusing on molecular mechanisms underlying joint lubrication and physiological responses to environmental stimuli.

His primary research domains include:

• Molecular Dynamics Simulations: Modeling protein-glycosaminoglycan interactions in synovial fluid
• Nonlinear Time Series Analysis: Applying recurrence methods to study biomolecular dynamics
• Glycosaminoglycan Biophysics: Investigating chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronic acid behavior
• Light-Physiology Interactions: Examining spectral effects on human alertness

Analysis of his publication trends reveals consistent focus on computational biophysics, particularly using molecular dynamics to decode protein conformational changes and lubrication mechanisms in articular cartilage. His work increasingly incorporates statistical mechanics to address non-Markovian dynamics in biological systems, with recent publications emphasizing aqueous environment interactions relevant to osteoarthritis.

Dr. Weber secured MINIATURA funding (DEC-2019/03/X/ST3/01482) for his project on Non-Markovian protein dynamics, indicating active research leadership. His institutional profile lists 88 teaching activities, suggesting significant educational contributions.

Within the Institute of Physics and Applied Computer Science, he collaborates on interdisciplinary projects combining physics, computer science, and biomedical engineering to model complex biological interfaces and develop computational frameworks for biomolecular analysis.
