First submission from the new group and it’s the method we developed for the @AndiChallenge Have a look at arxiv.org/abs/2503.09422

Recurrent neural network analysis of single trajectories switching...

Diffusive dynamics abound in nature and have been especially studied in physical, biological, and financial systems. These dynamics are characterised by a linear growth of the mean squared...

Our latest manuscript, where we show that C-terminal amidation of an antimicrobial peptide increases its conformational flexibility, which improves membrane penetration, leads to faster bacterial killing & better selectivity for pathogens, is available. bit.ly/3Ct1PSm
