New preprint 🧬! Can enhanced-sampling molecular dynamics find RNA's rare functional states without being told where to look? Short answer: yes! This project is our lab's first step towards de novo RNA target discovery. biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…
Why do t-tubules form the way they do in cardiac maturation? An engineering analysis across species may offer some testable hypotheses. Thanks to
