Galanin (1-15) enhances the behavioral effects of fluoxetine in the forced swimming test: a new therapeutic strategy against depression [PDF]
The selective serotonergic (5- HT) reuptake inhibitors, including Fluoxetine (FLX), are the most commonly used for treatment of major depression. However, the understanding of the mechanism of action of FLX beyond its effect of elevating 5-HT is limited.

Swimming by spinning: spinning-top type rotations regularize sperm swimming into persistently symmetric paths in 3D [PDF]
Sperm modulate their flagellar symmetry to navigate through complex physico-chemical environments and achieve reproductive function. Yet it remains elusive how sperm swim forwards despite the inherent asymmetry of several components that constitutes the flagellar engine.

Swimming speeds of filaments in nonlinearly viscoelastic fluids [PDF]
Many microorganisms swim through gels and non-Newtonian fluids in their natural environments. In this paper, we focus on microorganisms which use flagella for propulsion. We address how swimming velocities are affected in nonlinearly viscoelastic fluids by examining the problem of an infinitely long cylinder with arbitrary beating motion in the Oldroyd-
