1. Kinetic Models in Life Science — Contributions to Methods and Applications
Abstract : Kinetic models in life science combine mathematics and biology to answer questions from areas such as cell biology, physiology, biotechnology, and drug development. The idea of kinetic models is to represent a biological system by a number of biochemical reactions together with mathematical expressions for the reaction kinetics, i.e. READ MORE

2. Computational Analysis of Molecular Recognition Involving the Ribosome and a Voltage Gated K+ Channel
Abstract : Over the last few decades, computer simulation techniques have been established as an essential tool for understanding biochemical processes. This thesis deals mainly with the application of free energy calculations to ribosomal complexes and a cardiac ion channel. READ MORE

3. Mechanism of Action of the Antiarrhythmic Agent AZD7009
Abstract : Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common tachyarrhythmia in the adult population and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. AF can be terminated and sinus rhythm restored by prolonging the action potential duration (APD) and the refractory period. READ MORE

4. Molecular mechanisms of local anaesthetic action on voltage-gated ion channels
Abstract : In this thesis I try to clarify some molecular mechanisms of local anaesthetic action on ion channels. The traditional view is that local anaesthetics eliminate action potentials by a direct block of Na channels. Other mechanisms, however, have been suggested. READ MORE
