A Monte Carlo Study of a Model of Globular Protein Nanoparticles

Pagan D.L., Gracheva M.E., Gunton J.D., Lehigh University, US

We explore the metastable fluid-fluid coexistence curve of the modified Lennard-Jones model of globular proteins of ten Wolde and Frenkel [4]. Using grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations along with mixed-field finitesize scaling and histogram rewighting, [...]

Stochastic Simulations of Cell-Cell Signalling in Hepatocytes

Gracheva M.E., Toral R., Gunton J.D., Lehigh University, US

We present results of a Monte Carlo simulation of stochastic effects for two models of intercellular calcium wave propagation in rat hepatocytes. Both models involve gap junction diffusion by a second messenger. In general taking [...]
