That's my current University!!! Very nice!

I was able to bypass paywall and retrieve the article... Can I share it here? Couldn't find anything about it in the rules.

Do you mean the study? It is copyrighted?

Says it on the website linked by /u/crazypa and I would not post it. However, that is not the article this thread refers to.

Here is the correct article, which was published open access. http://www.cell.com/biophysj/abstract/S0006-3495(15)00768-7

Nice! The article he linked was published in 2011... I saw and was a bit puzzled.

I feel the copyright information should be included in the pdf itself too... I had closed the page, and was looking through the pdf, couldn't identify any form of warning or protection...

You're probably fine. /r/scholar exists to do exactly that.

It wasn't the right article... So I gave up

I have a library proxy from my university, is it against the rules to post the PDF here?

Who gives two fucks. The idea of putting knowledge behind a paywall is ludicrous.
