Overall, we showed that the mechanics of PCDH15 are modulated by Ca2+ and that PCDH15 has the appropriate stiffness to be part of the gating spring. The mechanics of the mutant suggest it is unable to convey adequate tension to the channels, likely the mechanism of deafness.

And they say a PhD is a marathon—so I ran the @nycmarathon before finishing my PhD to find out if that’s true. Turns out they’re both tough…and I wouldn’t have been able to do either without the support of my amazing family and friends. Thank you!!

@DrVidSiva Agreed! I’m just particularly fired up about Maryland now, but really we need a nationwide mask mandate!
