Why not help Dr Srijit Ghosh celebrate the @pintofscienceIE Festival next Wednesday 20th May in Kennedy’s Bar, Dundalk. He’ll have 10 mins to tell you about his research & we know it’ll be excellent. Tickets are free, but you must book here: https://t.co/2UVtI3txS1

Bernard T. Drumm, Neha Gupta, Alexandru Mircea & Caoimhin S. Griffin (@SMRC_Lab) examine the cells and ionic conductances contributing to spontaneous activity in #bladder and #urethral smooth muscle 🔬 🔄

I find myself In Dundalk.

Should probably say hello to @SMRC_Lab

[Christopher Torrens @chris_torrens]

A fantastic opportunity…

Already so many highlights from #IUPS2025 in Frankfurt!

From fascinating talks on virtual labs and the clinical application of AI, to connecting with colleagues across the exhibition floor, it’s inspiring to engage with the global physiology community.

[Smooth Muscle Research Centre @SMRC_Lab]

A large contingent from @smrc_lab looking forward to all things physiological @TheIUPS in Frankfurt this week. Enjoy it folks!

[Osama Harraz @OsamaHarraz]

You don't want to miss this outstanding opportunity to publish your best work on ion channels in the @JGenPhysiol

Great to see this @ResearchIre funded work published in @jbiolchem this week. https://t.co/gV7LELiNwR Our collaborative study with Mike Shipston’s lab @EdinburghUni demonstrated that the extracellular domain of LINGO1 downregulates BK plasmalemmal expression, 1/2

Many thanks to @HAT_Pritchard
from @OfficialUoM for giving a fantastic Research Seminar at the @SMRC_Lab today.

[O’ Cuilleanáin @159alfa]

Many thanks to @RoseEDixon1, @JonSilva_Stl & @FASEBorg for organising a wonderful Ion Channel SRC. A week of cutting edge science, engaging, respectful, discussion & real collegiality. Great to see the next generation of channel scientists coming through. Super job #ICRSRC 👏👏👏

[O’ Cuilleanáin @159alfa]

Looking forward to speaking the lingo @FASEBorg ion channel meeting in Southbridge, MA, USA & showing data from one of the projects @SMRC_Lab in @DkIT_ie #ICRSRC

[Smooth Muscle Research Centre @SMRC_Lab]

A massive thank you to @OsamaHarraz from @uvmcmb at the University of Vermont, USA, for a wonderful seminar on his research today.

[Smooth Muscle Research Centre @SMRC_Lab]

Many thanks to Prof Adam Rich from @U_SUNYBrockport for a superb seminar on Zebrafish. It was great to host you in our labs this week.

[Smooth Muscle Research Centre @SMRC_Lab]

Great to publish a review of some recent work from @SMRC_Lab on the role of M2Rs in the airways. Always good to challenge the dogma! 👀👀👉🏼 https://t.co/bY1X4mkzCP
