Computational Science Interview Questions

9 computational science interview questions shared by candidates

The take-home question itself was an interesting machine learning question, perhaps not too difficult (I had not looked at this material for a long time so I had to look up different methods to figure out which one was being referenced). I thought it was posed in an interesting way and some thought had gone into not revealing too much.

What are the recent available tools for protein modeling? How would I predict protein expression levels and what conditions do affect it? How would you monitor protein folding? How do language models work in protein folding? Who did develop Rosetta fold? Would you be open to relocate to Prague? How would you validate an ML model? What Python libraries would you use to visualize the data (MatPlotlib, Seaborn)?
