About
Martin Cohen‐Gonsaud is a structural biologist and computational chemist whose work bridges molecular modeling and rational drug design. His research focuses on understanding the three-dimensional structures of proteins involved in infectious diseases, particularly those of *Mycobacterium tuberculosis*, and translating that knowledge into novel therapeutic strategies. His most cited work, "From Molecular Modeling to Drug Design" (2007), has garnered 5 citations and serves as a foundational resource for researchers integrating computational approaches into the drug discovery pipeline. Cohen‐Gonsaud is perhaps best known for his contributions to the structural characterization of key mycobacterial proteins, including the resuscitation-promoting factors and the DosR regulon, which are critical for understanding bacterial dormancy and persistence. His work has directly informed the development of small-molecule inhibitors targeting these pathways, offering new avenues for combating tuberculosis. With a career marked by interdisciplinary collaboration, Cohen‐Gonsaud continues to shape the field by combining X-ray crystallography, molecular dynamics, and virtual screening to accelerate the identification of promising drug candidates.
