Thermodynamics and Docking of Agonists to the β 2- Adrenoceptor Determined Using [ 3H](R,R′)-4-Methoxyfenoterol as the Marker Ligand
To better understand the molecular interactions of fenoterol analogs with the β2-adrenergic receptor, we developed a new agonist radioligand for binding assays.

Bitter to better – how to make Bitcoin a better currency
Abstract Bitcoin is a distributed digital currency which has attracted a substantial number of users. We perform an in-depth investigation to understand what made Bitcoin so successful, while decades of research on cryptographic e-cash has not lead to a large-scale deployment. We ask also how Bitcoin could become a good candidate for a long-lived stable…
