The birth of computational structural
biology
Michael Levitt
Like Sydney Altman1, I too was initially
rejected by the renowned Medical
Research Council (MRC) Laboratory of
Molecular Biology in Cambridge,
England. The year was 1967 and I was
then in my final year of a B.Sc. degree in
Physics at Kings College in London.
Enthralled by John Kendrew’s BBC 1964
television series “The Thread of Life”, I
wanted desperately to do my Ph.D. at the
MRC in Cambridge. Alas there was no
room for any new postgraduate students
in 1967!
After some negotiations, I was accepted
for the following year. More importantly,
John Kendrew said that I should spend the
intervening period at the Weizmann
Institute in Israel with Shneior Lifson.
Kendrew had just heard of Lifson’s initial
ideas2 on the consistent force field (CFF),
which was an attempt to simulate the Fig. 1 The total potential energy of any molecule is the sum of simple allowing for bond stretch-

properties of any molecular system from a erties of a biomolecules can be simulated with such an empirical energy function.
