More nutritious than delicious

melanogaster show a preference for nutritive sugars (which can be metabolized) over non-nutritive sugars (which offer no nutritive benefit) independently of taste; however, the mechanisms that mediate this preference are unknown. In a recent study, Suh and colleagues show that, in D. melanogaster, neurons expressing Diuretic hormone 44 (Dh44; a homologue of mammalian corticotropin-releasing hor...

Computational Biophysics

Introduction/Group Overview The RLE Computational Biophysics Group is focused on understanding conformational changes in biomolecules that play an important role in common human diseases. The group uses an interdisciplinary approach combining computational modeling with biochemical experiments to make connections between conformational changes in macromolecules and disease progression. By emplo...

Radiation Biophysics

As valuable as the formal presentations are the informal and thoughtprovoking discussions which are well reported in the published proceedings. The booklet will be rewarding reading for those interested in the mode of action of neuromuscular blocking agents. In addition, the consideration given to drug receptor interaction, although naturally applied to the curare receptor, should prove very us...
