One paper I have in mind is Hodgkin & Huxley's paper published in 1952 where 
they first wrote down the equations describing the membrane voltage of the 
giant squid axon.

It'll be a good exercise for me to go through it and write a summary, 
transcribing the equations into the Leibniz notation.

Currently I only have a limited exposure to proof assistants, so I hesitate to 
say anything definitive. I'm focusing on Isabelle right now at tutorial stage 
since I heard from various sources that HOL-type assistants are more useful for 
real analysis problems. Isabelle belongs to that category which is the reason 
I'm looking at it more closely.

No firm concrete applications in mind, it's an open-ended exploration.
