Las técnicas de simulación computacional se usan extensivamente para estudiar sistemas biológicos, y en general, materiales sólidos y blandos. Debido a la complejidad de los fenómenos biológicos, y a la imposibilidad de estudiar teóricamente el comportamiento de sistemas tales como proteínas y membranas, la simulación computacional se utiliza para estudiar la estructura y dinámica de estos sistemas en diferentes escalas temporales. En este artículo describiremos brevemente algunas de las técnicas de simulación computacional más utilizadas en Biología: la Dinámica Molecular, la Dinámica Browniana y el Método de Monte Carlo. Nuestra intención es proporcionar un panorama introductorio de la utilidad de los métodos de simulación molecular en Biología.
