Congratulations to all of our @MizzouBiology graduates. We know you will go on to do amazing things!!

It's Giving Day! Join me and make a gift to Mizzou! #ForMizzou formizzou.missouri.edu/dept-of-biolog…

Our new Methods manuscript describing dynamic clamp electrophysiology was recently published. We will add a companion video within a few weeks. The sample experiments involve rescuing firing deficits in Tsc1-deleted Purkinje neurons. app.jove.com/t/69155/dynami…

A study long in the making! Initiated at WashU and completed at Miami, our work demonstrates that the functional role of ion channel proteins can differ significantly depending on the type of neuron in which they are expressed.

We're HIRING!! Join our dynamic team as a Student Support Specialist II and play a key role in shaping the experience of graduate students in the Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program and the Division of Biological Sciences Apply TODAY! tinyurl.com/MizzBio

It's time to honor #Mizzou's 2025 Kemper Fellows. Our second 2025 William T. Kemper Fellow: Pamela Brown from @MizzouAandS! Join the #Mizzou community and @CommerceBank in congratulating Pamela! More info ➡️ brnw.ch/21wR6ny

TSC1 LOF mutations are monogenic causes of ASD. Mice with Purkinje neuron-specific Tsc1 deletion have several ASD-like behaviors. Here, Sam and Achintya (co 1st-authors) show these PNs have problems with AP firing due to a loss of Na+ channels at the AIS pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40015654/

Of no major consequence of course, but a quick mention that I have moved over to #Bluesky if anyone is interested. Still only rarely posting, and almost exclusively scientific/academic content. Stay well. superapis.bsky.social

Hidden Music 🎶🪲 For 30 years, #Mizzou biologist Rex Cocroft has studied treehoppers — a plant-feeding insect species — and how they signal each other through vibrations. Learn how his research inspired and guided an episode of @BBC's Planet Earth ➡️ brnw.ch/21wMx4o

My tribute to the wonderful PhD students with whom I’ve worked is to add their diss. seminar trifold to the “shelf of scholars” in my office. CONGRATS to Dr. Sherryl Henderson for defending her thesis this morning!! I am proud to call you my colleague and friend. @MizzouBiology

TIGERS! THANK YOU for all the generous donations on #MizzouGivingDay! Because of your gifts, you help support world-class education for our students & help facilitate amazing research. Thank you, again, for your support!! You are AMAZING!! @MizzouAandS @Mizzou

A gift to the DBS Excellence Funds helps support the @MizzouBiology research, teaching, and service missions. GIVE Today-->> mizzougivedirect.missouri.edu/Item.aspx?item… @MizzouAandS @mizzou #research #MizzouGivingDay

Today's the day, Tigers! 🐯It's #MizzouGivingDay and you have the opportunity to do something incredible. mizzougivedirect.missouri.edu/fund.aspx?item… #MizzouBiology @MizzouAandS

In hot water: Climate change tests limits of neuronal resilience in crabs By @avaskham thetransmitter.org/circuits/in-ho…

Congratulations to our December Graduates!!

At @SFN23, Sam Brown presented his dynamic clamp experiments showing the resurgent sodium current (INaR) does not affect the firing rates of central neurons. Instead, INaR tunes the availability of persistent sodium current. Check out the preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Great start to the #SfN2023 with the dynamic neural network meeting. #neuroscience @neuroethology @MarderLab @LingjunLi2 @ISUResearch @SchulzLab @DawnBlitz @Neuroethology_9 @Neuroethology_ @KavliFoundation

So proud of Kathryn Storey for winning the People's Choice Award for her elevator pitch at the always fantastic Greenwald Symposium last week

Dr. Chiswili Yves Chabu is researching a unique bacteria-based treatment for drug-resistant pancreatic cancer. Join us for a free event at noon on Nov. 7 to learn how the strategy might improve care for the half million patients diagnosed each year. precisionhealth.missouri.edu/umsystem/nextg…
