Join us in congratulating Dr. Emily Liman (@emily_liman) on being the 2023 K. Cole Awardee! Dr. Liman has many notable scientific contributions, including the discovery of an entirely new class of ion channels that conduct H+ ions and are present in the sour taste cells.
New preprint from our lab! Does the choice of nanodisc scaffold matter for single particle cryo-EM? The answer is yes (!) for the pentameric ligand-gated ion channel, ELIC. @VikramDalal_37 @PageAnesthesia @GraceBrannigan@wuccilab@WashUanesthesia
@SunitaS45309718 Hi Sunita, after getting no initial response I stopped paying attention to this, so I missed your reply. If you are still interested I am happy to chat with you. You can email me at [email protected]
Postdoc/scientist position(s) available in my lab at the University of Texas at Austin. Experience in single-molecule imaging, patch clamp electrophysiology, or membrane protein structure determination preferred. Great environment for ion channel biophysics and fun place to live.
@ArimMarchesi Hi Arin, after getting no initial response I stopped paying attention to this, so I missed your reply. If you are still interested I am happy to chat with you. You can email me at [email protected]
I confess: I have been resting a bit, twitterless 🤭— this is a delayed tweet 🫣…thanks all for your nice messages & thanks @BiophysicalSoc members for trusting me to serve on this new role. I look forward to work with you for the next years. Humbled, honored and excited!
📯Sharona Gordon Award📯 We are pleased to announce this year's Sharona Gordon Awardee: Dr. Gabriela Popescu @PopStarLab. We deeply appreciate Dr. Popescu's sustained contribution toward a more diverse and inclusive physiologist community. Congrats Dr. Popescu 🥳🥳🏆🏆
hERG1 really is everywhere. Check out our foray into the cardiac nucleus!
KCNH2 encodes a nuclear-targeted polypeptide that mediates hERG1 channel gating and expression https://t.co/XS4hTUcSa8
Very excited to share a “structural mechanism of leaflet-specific phospholipid modulation of a pentameric ligand-gated ion channel”. @GraceBrannigan @jerome_henin @wuccilab @JFitzpatrickWU @YuanLabWUSTL https://t.co/FF1gGTGL1D
@AndrewPlested Thanks Andrew! I was really impressed with the rigor that Nicole and Claudio brought to these measurements. Also thanks to Tom for helping me with the commentary.
