Karplus’s techniques combined classical and quantum mechanical approaches to model complex chemical systems
The theoretical chemist Martin Karplus, who won the Nobel prize in 2013, has died at the age of 94. Karplus, was known for his work developing computer models to study complex chemical systems like biomolecules. Many computational chemists today use techniques based on those pioneered by Karplus and his colleagues in the 1970s.
