Journal ArticleDOI
Hoover NPT dynamics for systems varying in shape and size
TL;DR: In this article, the equations of motion for an exact isothermal-isobaric molecular dynamics simulation were written down and extended to multiple thermostating rates, to a shape-varying cell and to molecular systems, coherently with the previous extended system method.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review what computer, in vitro, in vivo, and pharmacological experiments tell us about the accumulation and deposition of the oligomers of the (Aβ, tau), α-synuclein, IAPP, and superoxide dismutase 1 proteins, which have been the mainstream concept underlying Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease (PD), type II diabetes (T2D), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Artery Visualizations for Heart Disease Diagnosis
Michelle A. Borkin,Krzysztof Z. Gajos,Amanda Peters,Dimitrios Mitsouras,Simone Melchionna,Frank J. Rybicki,Charles L. Feldman,Hanspeter Pfister +7 more
TL;DR: HemoVis is developed, an interactive visualization application for heart disease diagnosis that uses a novel 2D tree diagram representation of coronary artery trees and shows statistically significant results demonstrating that 2D visualizations are more accurate and efficient than 3D representations, and that a perceptually appropriate color map leads to fewer diagnostic mistakes than a rainbow color map.
Journal ArticleDOI
The OPEP protein model: from single molecules, amyloid formation, crowding and hydrodynamics to DNA/RNA systems.

TL;DR: The current state of the OPEP coarse-grained protein model and the most exciting applications using advanced conformational sampling methods are reviewed and a perspective on the ongoing developments is presented.
