First batch of scientific papers; Insulin Particle Formation

[This post will be edited as I read.]

So, I am going to try to work my way through the 4 papers I have been sent so far by my summer internship. Now, I should be writing essays so I can finish the term, but I'm not having any luck. At least this is more productive than watching tv.
I will give the abstract and journal for each of these papers (one here, then more posts), and then I will be adding definitions to terms that I had to look up, plus my summary of each part of the paper. These are my notes, so that I have a working base of knowledge when I read more papers in the future, but maybe they will be of use to someone.

My Summer Plans and Advice on Your Summer Plans

Hi all.
I am very excited to be able to say that I have my summer plans set. I will be taking part in Lehigh's REU in physics. I will be working with Professor Gunton on modeling proteins self-assembling from solution. I know next to nothing about the topic, but I have a couple of Professor Gunton's recent papers, so I will read them and know slightly more soon.
