Dave Arnold

Yesterday, I had the honor of sharing research from my lab as the 10th Dave Kilmer Memorial Lecture Speaker at UC Davis. Dr. Kilmer's pioneering work was a driving force behind my decision to pursue neuromuscular medicine as a career.

Beautiful paper. Scientists solved the structure of myosin—the protein that forms contractile filaments in muscle cells—in multiple configurations using Cryo-EM. They captured the entire power stroke action (where myosin pulls on actin to shorten the muscle) at4.4 Å resolution.

Great presentation by @bthomasZOU congrats on an amazing body of work during your PhD training as part of the Tom and Anne Smith MD/PhD program.

Strong work Joe! Representing our group at AANAM. Wish I could have joined.

Excited and proud to share great news about Dr. Viteri’s recent grant. Strong work! Excited to see the impact that this work can have on increasing our mechanistic understanding of ALS and developing better treatments. americanbrainfoundation.org/meet-the-resea…

@jdpereira @researchsquare Thanks!

@DaveArnoldLab @researchsquare Very cool, congratulations!!

Excited to share our recent pre-print @researchsquare: Targeting senescence in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: senolytic treatment improves neuromuscular function and preserves cortical excitability in a TDP-43Q331K mouse model. researchsquare.com/article/rs-608…

@JustinKMYeung Congratulations!

I’m going to be a physiatrist! Extremely grateful and can’t wait till Friday! #Match2025

Team science is the best science. This is a great write up about a collaborative project triggered by a chance meeting during a virtual poster session at SFN. Plus there's more to come stemming this collaboration in the near future. carney.brown.edu/news/2025-02-1…

Excited to share our new work investigating a neurotherapeutic approach for age-related loss of physical function just published in Geroscience. 5‑HT2C agonism asaneurotherapeutic forsarcopenia: preclinical proof ofconcept. rdcu.be/d6F30

RTs appreciated: I have up to 2 funded PhD/MS student positions for Fall 2025. Are you interested in reducing competitive and/or tactical athlete’s risk of bone injuries, exercise interventions for healthy aging, or female physiology then check us out education.okstate.edu/research/labs/…

Excited for the opening of our new neuroscience research space in NextGen Precision Health and the addition of three soon to be be five new neuroscience PIs! showme.missouri.edu/2024/the-silen…

Excited to see our team project online! Contributions of Mouse Genetic Strain Background to Age-Related Phenotypes in Physically Active HET3 Mice - ScienceDirect sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@jdpereira Thank you!

@DaveArnoldLab Awesome stuff, congratulations Dave!!

Excited to announce our new ALSA Trial Capacity Award which aims improve access to Clinical Trials in Missouri als.org/blog/breaking-…

NextGen Precision Health is growing awareness for the exciting research happening across Missouri at the Society for Neuroscience conference in Washington D.C. The UM System is well represented with 24 poster presenters and panelists! @SfNtweets #SfN23
