A club none of us ever wanted to join yet here we are. Fighting hard every day for a better future. #cureSCN2A

This #preprint by @GraceGalles, @chrisahern and colleagues at @OregonState, @UofIllinois and @uiowa has recently been reviewed by @BiophysicsColab You can read the report here: sciety.org/articles/activ… biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Yet another company focused on #tRNA therapies launched yesterday: hC Bioscience, with $24 million and Craig Mello on the SAB. It is a good time to revisit the deep dive I wrote on this emerging tRNA technology back in Sept. cen.acs.org/pharmaceutical…

@TheSTEMtress So glad to hear you liked the talk!

Wonderful evening at the DSF Research Roundtable! Especially enjoyed hearing about @chrisahern's awesome work. Love to see so many amazing minds working towards a common goal. #Dravet #AES2021

Ryan Hibbs, Associate Professor at UTSW and @ucsdbms @UCSDPharm alumnus, is presenting the Chemistry and Biochemistry seminar this Friday 👇

Fantastic news - major congrats to Leah and the SCN2A Foundation

7.5 years ago I started the very first #SCN2A support group. We have grown to almost 1,000 families from around the globe! Happy 6th birthday @FamilieSCN2A!

Happy birthday to #LaskerLaureate Bertil Hille! Hille was recognized for his work on #ionchannels, which govern the electrical potential of membranes, generating nerve impulses and controlling muscle contraction, cardiac rhythm, and hormone secretion. ow.ly/SPfX30lRPuy

For another perspective on C-type inactivation. Check out this JGP paper from @BenoitRoux6 and @eperozo_ rupress.org/jgp/article/15…

Wow! Another structure of C-type inactivated state of Shaker type channel. Congrats to Francis Valiyaveetil and the team!

Slow inactivation is renewed! Great to see these open/inactivated structures along with the Shaker W434F from @kenton_swartz biorxiv.org/content/10.110… @indolenitrogen

@AxonalLab @NeuroBender "Navi" would work too ; )

@NeuroBender You could call him/her "Cavi". Just had a great discussion with Anna .... inspired by Cavs now! We miss you at the meeting Kevin!

Hey Twitterati! I am a looking for two postdocs with experience recording from primary neuron-astrocyte co-cultures: ummsjobs.com/job/6809/ Not only is UMass Worcester close to @PolarPark (Home of the WooSox), but Hank Pym's mobile lab is being built next to our building!

Such promising work! @TevardB @chrisahern

Want to learn more about Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels #ionchannels? Join us on Sept. 28, 2021, with the inaugural seminar by Dr. Nieng Yan @NiengYan "Close a voltage-gated sodium channel by a door wedge" - more info on sodiumchannelseminars.org co-organized @LampertLabRWTH & us.

Exciting times for @KelleyLabs!

Hyde Park is glowing 🌆 📷 @brettbeyer

Join us Sept. 30 for next webinar presented by Dr. Ishmail Abdus-Saboor, Asst Prof at @Columbia. He'll discuss findings from efforts to uncover a behavioral map of sensory-vs-motivational pain in mice. #drugdiscovery #translationalresearch #painresearch attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/50615…
