Happy to share our lab's latest study published in Nature today which uncovers an unexpected ability of GluA2-containing AMPA receptors to transport calcium ions and how this property may explain some genetic forms of autism and intellectual disability. rdcu.be/eeeA1

Our new study showing how local axonal protein synthesis boosts synaptic burst coding is just out in Neuron! For the abridged version, check out the amazingly talented @Hovy_Wong 's thread below! For all the details, here's the paper itself: cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

Protein synthesis is key to memory but not transmission(?). Yet nature is full of surprises! We found & resolved how axonal translation is needed for burst transmission, which is crucial in memory formation. @NeuroCellPress 👇@alanna_j_watt @pj_sjostrom tinyurl.com/4ybekxzs

Last week we said goodbye to Arjun A-Bhaskaran who spent the last 3 years in our lab as a postdoctoral fellow. Arjun brought a lot of enthusiasm to his science and we learned that he has a great talent in illustration. Thanks again for the lab caricatures…lnkd.in/eMQQEM3N
