Patrick L Sheets

Huge thanks to @SheetsLabIUSM Patrick Sheets from @IUSM for a great @CAPToR_UF Seminar Series talk, “Reverse engineering mPFC circuits implicated in pain.” 🧠 It was a pleasure to host you - thank you for the inspiring insights & engaging discussion on mapping pain circuits!

Had an amazing time in San Diego for @SfNtweets #SfN2025! Proud of the outstanding #PainResearch presented by my students @reganhines18 and @osullivanduffy. If you’re looking for a talented postdoc, @reganhines18 is set to graduate Fall 2026—reach out!

Come check out the latest work from @reganhines18 and @osullivanduffy on mPFC and BLA circuits/ephys/pharmacology in SNI and CFA pain! See everyone in San Diego @SfNtweets #SfN2025 #Neuroscience #PainResearch

Great lab representation at the @IUStark_Neuro Summer Symposium. @reganhines18 (poster), @osullivanduffy (platform presentation) and our fantastic @NotreDame summer undergraduate Abbie Uche-Ejekwu (poster).

Post-qualifying exam lab lunch celebration for official PhD candidate @osullivanduffy. Congrats! Now the real work begins.....

I was told "Our tech is scheduled to arrive between 8AM-12PM", so I went ahead and scheduled my dentist appointment for 8AM.

Very proud of the lab's talented @IUSM_PharmTox graduate student @reganhines18 for winning the @IUStark_Neuro Women in Neuroscience Research & Career Development Award. Anyone looking for a post-doc in ~ 2 years is lucky.

youtu.be/C-Cv9z86cOE?si… If the Dodgers sweep, @icecube deserves a ring.

@DFWAirport @AskTSA Thanks for the replay @DFWAirport. Nonetheless, poor execution and communication between @AskTSA and @DFWAirport. This is clear from the customer service line.

@SheetsLabIUSM We're sorry to hear about the delay, and we know that getting through security quickly is important. Staffing levels and the number of open lanes are controlled by @AskTSA. Agents are doing their best to get you through as soon as possible.

Do better @DFWAirport. Landed with 95 minutes before connecting flight to Indianapolis. Customs and security took 85 minutes. TSA precheck closed, two security lanes open. Missed connection. Pathetic.

Pass quals ✔️. Present poster at @IASPpain World Congress ✔️. Quite a week for @IUSM_PharmTox @NeurosciStark PhD candidate @reganhines18. #WC2024

Great presentation by my @IUSMPharmTox student @reganhines18 at the @NeurosciStark Summer Symposium. Please swing by her poster at @IASPpain World Congress.

Frank Porreca and @bannister_lab know how to throw a @PainMechanisms conference. Honored to be a part of it. World-class science, tremendous people. Thanks to Jing Wang @nyulangone for putting together a great Cortical circuits a d pain session.

RT @IUSM_PharmTox: Regan Hines (@reganhines18) in the @SheetsLabIUSM received an American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine…

Amazing journey and accomplishment for now Dr. @YinYuexi. It's been a privilege being your mentor. Great students always have to leave. Good luck at @McGeheeLab @UChicago. Big shoes to fill for @reganhines18 and @osullivanduffy.

The Sheets Lab @IUSMPharmTox is excited to welcome talented graduate student Abigail O'Sullivan-Duffy @osullivanduffy to our team. Abby will be deconstructing pain circuits in the mPFC.

@andiefjones Well-deserved. Congratulations.

So proud of my senior graduate @IUSM_MedNeuro student @YinYuexi and her new publication with @david__haggerty and @BradyAtwood. She's off to do great things with @McGeheeLab at UChicago this summer. jneurosci.org/content/early/…

@jordacular @YinYuexi You did at least wash them, correct?

@SheetsLabIUSM @YinYuexi In grad school I always wore the same pair of jeans for single-unit recordings. Tried them out for whole-cell recordings in my postdoc and they didn’t work. Haven’t worn jeans to lab since haha

Electrophysiologist superstitions? My senior graduate student @YinYuexi cannot pull electrodes before prepping acute brain slices. Me: remember to use manners when asking a cell to seal.... Anyone else?

As a naive graduate student 20 years ago learning ephys and ion channel biophysics, I always checked to see what Bill was doing. Glad I had the privilege of meeting him. RIP.
