In our Dec issue, @Char_Smith3 @KatDibb @Cardiac_Phys show there is enhanced calcium release at specialised sites on surface of newborn atrial cells mediated by enlarged SR and larger, closely spaced RyR clusters that compensate for low t-tubule density.

A novel drug to prevent arrhythmia triggered by low potassium. This could potentially benefit lots of patients, especially those with heart failure or inherited arrhythmia. @DCVS_UoM @Cardiac_Phys @LIMR_ @TheBHF #cardiogenetics

Research letter pre-print: the importance of potassium monitoring in CPVT. An inherited arrhythmia that is often misdiagnosed and mismanaged. Check it out if interested. Should be open access soon:https://t.co/ut4a9FQWp3 @DCVS_UoM @Cardiac_Phys @LIMR_ @TheBHF #cardiogenetics

[Amanda Guevara @amandaguevara__]

Amazing poster presentation from Dr. Charlotte Smith (@Char_Smith3 ) on altered calcium release in heart failure atria at #HRS2022

Great job @kerrilikescats!

A shout out for Kerri - seems like years ago that this was the norm. ⁦@DCVS_UoM⁩ ⁦@Cardiac_Phys⁩
