BMC Biophysics 2012, 5:2Intrinsic dynamics of the ephrin receptor EphA4
Structural determination of the EphA4 ligand binding domain provides the first experimental and computational evidence that intrinsic dynamics are most likely to be responsible for the observed high conformational diversity that mediates binding affinity and specificity.

BMC Biophysics 2011, 4:19Complexities of low affinity ligand binding
Manipulation of maximum ligand and receptor concentrations and intentionally increasing ligand depletion are potentially helpful approaches to study low affinity binding of epibatidine to an independent binding site of alpha4beta2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.

BMC Biophysics 2011, 4:18Modeling self-organization of filaments
A discrete filament-motor protein model of subcellular microtubule self-assembly in fission yeast spontaneously generates a number of steady states, including spindles, nematics, and asters, highlighting potential mechanisms for self-organisation in filaments

Quote
"I strongly believe in the internet and open-access publishing in order to achieve scientific outreach both within academia and outside academia. Open-access allows anyone in the world with access to a computer to access scientific research. These innovative journals are becoming extremely successful and will change the nature of scientific publishing and increase the accessibility of science."
