A major part of my PhD work is now a preprint: we characterized a pathogenic mutation in the selectivity filter of GIRK2, found in a patient with a comparatively mild case of Keppen-Lubinsky syndrome, a rare but severe neurodevelopmental disorder.

Thanks to Anna Stary-Weinzinger and Nathan Dascal, who supervised this work, and to Ilia Steshin and Theres Friesacher for their contributions. Also to Steffen Hering and the team at ChanPharm GmbH, where I carried out the experiments.
Excited to be presenting at #BPS2025 in LA!

Both are about a GIRK drug repurposing screen - come say hi! Huge thanks to @BiophysicalSoc for the opportunity! 🙌
Our multi-chamber cardioid paper is finally out! Big thanks to the whole team & collaborators, #IMBA for their continuous support, and the reviewers & editors for facilitating further improvements. Thank you!
Breakthrough in #IonChannels research 👀
International researchers from @univienna & @WUSTL have made significant progress in understanding the "gating" process of Kir2 potassium channels.
