Future Improvements

 * 1) Add a force dependence into the rate constants
 * 2) *Look at "force production by Single Kinesin Motors by Schnitzer, Vissher, Block for a starting point to learn how to do this
 * 3) *Also "Modeling Motilityof Kinesin Dimer from Molecular Properties of Individual Monomers" by Fan, Zheng, Hou, Li, and Wang uses results from Block's paper so that can help as well
 * 4) Add a concentration dependence into rate constants
 * 5) *I know that binding ATP, ADP both should be in X 1/Ms so that should be multiplied by concentration. I am not sure if there is anything more than that
 * 6) *It would be interesting to see if this follows the Michaelis-Menten Equation like it should
 * 7) Allow for easier changes in rate constants.
 * 8) *Right now you gotta wire global variables to change rate constants. A sub.vi that selects certain ones and changes like you want may help. but i am not sure how to do this yet.

=Poster for Silver INCBN= The first draft is almost done. I hate most of my writing. The only thing that isn't done is the tracking box, but that'll get done when i get Ant's picture for that. I was hoping to have the first draft done. Koch, maybe you can look at this now and give your thoughts so i can do more work tomorrow and possibly less on Sunday. It is in the z drive under the name 2009 INCBN Poster SDM and Kinesin.ppt

The whole left side is the same from last poster. I didn't touch anything really. The right side is new and a bit disheveled and kinda crappy. What can I say I am not feeling it.
