He then joined the group of Prof. Parrinello at ETH Zurich first as a postdoc and the as Oberassistent (2002-2009).\nAt ETHZ he focused on the time-scale problem of molecular dynamics simulations and the calculation of free energies associated to complex biological events\, contributing to the development of methods such as Metadynamics\, Parallel-Tempering Metadynamics (PT- MetaD) and the path-like collective variables method (PCV). \nIn 2009 he joined the Spanish National Cancer Research Center in Madrid- Spain as the leader of the Biophysics group. There he continued the development of computational methods\, including a method to predict binding kinetics (PRL 2013). He also combined simulations with NMR experiments to better understand the mode of action of cancer-causing mutations and allosteric drugs. \nIn 2013 he joined University College London as full professor. Research highlights from this period include the development of a method to predict previously unknown cryptic binding pocket\, which was used to design allosteric modulators of FGFR (Cancer Cell\, JACS 2016); the development of a computational approach combining evolutionary principles with a physics- based coarse-grained model to predict protein structure and dynamics (PNAS 2015); the clarification of an unexpected moonlighting activity by Glutamine Synthetase (Nature 2018). In 2020 FLG also joined the University of Geneva as full professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences (while retaining his Chair at UCL). \nThe current research focus of the group is the development of simulations-based methods to understand the regulation of drug targets and design new therapeutic agents. In this context\, the group used enhanced sampling simulations to clarify the activation mechanism of the glucagon receptor (PNAS 2020) and the effect of oncogenic mutations on the dynamics of EGFR (ELife 2021). \nFLG is the editor in chief of Frontiers in Biological Modeling and Simulation; director of CECAM JC Maxwell node and a member of the Faculty of 1000. \nHe has an h-index of 49\, more than 9300 citations (Google Scholar) and more than 120 peer- reviewed publications\, including several in leading journals such as Nature\, Cancer Cell\, Chem. Rev.\, Acc. Chem. Res.\, Rep. Prog. Phys\, Sci. Adv.\, Nat. Comm.\, Proc. Nat. Acad. USA\, J. Am. Chem. Soc.\, Angew. Chem. and Phys. Rev. Lett. FLG organized several international conferences\, workshops and tutorials on allosteric regulation and biomolecular simulations. \nHis research group is supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation\, EU Horizon Europe and EPSRC. He actively collaborates with AstraZeneca\, J&J and UCB.
