If anyone is interesting in learning about what's new in optical microscopy, I will be giving an India Bioimaging webinar this Friday the 25th of July at 3PM (link in the next post))
Our lab in the Center for Neural and Cognitive Sciences will be taking two students for PhD program. Candidates interested in investigating neural circuit mechanisms underlying behavior in insect model systems using neuroethology, electrophysiology, and computational approaches
📢 Our new preprint is out on bioRxiv! De novo chemo-optogenetics through rational small-molecule design and TRAP display biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
We present a chemical approach for designing nanoporous thin films that precisely control #diffusion selectivity of #haloalkane isomers, collaborative effort with @Jmondal_tifrh and Soumya Ghosh group @TIFRH_buzz Now published in @NatureComms link: nature.com/articles/s4146…

In my several decades in science, few moments have been as seismic as when AlphaFold burst onto the scene (seeing the first structure of a K+ ion channel, from Rod MacKinnon, was up there too). We rushed to fold every protein we had been working on, that had no structure, and…
Today, I would like to honor the memory of Roger Y. Tsien, who died on August 24, 2016. His legacy lives with all who use his technologies, including calcium sensors, fluorescent proteins, the acetoxymethyl (AM) ester, & many more! #FluorescenceFriday nature.com/articles/nmeth…
