Dhananjay Bhattacharyya, Head of the Computer Sciences (CS) Division, Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, Calcutta, India, obtained his Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and a postdoctoral fellowship from National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, USA. Dr. Bhattacharyya's research interest is in understanding the structure-function relationship of biological macromolecules, particularly nucleic acids. In order to understand different structural features of nucleic acids, the CS Division at the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics has developed a number of software tools under his
