For all things related to ion channels and fertilization
Capping a 10-year-long adventure, in today's @CellCellPress we unveil the molecular mechanism whereby the fertilized egg permanently blocks polyspermy, a lethal condition for the embryo: doi.org/10.1016/j.cell… #structuralbiology #reproduction #fertilization #infertility
Congrats @lisi8810 !!!!
I am so honored to receive the Excelsior Award of @sgpweb. Thanks to #SGP for supporting my career development. Thanks to @hERGologie, Sebastian Brauchi, and Brad Rothberg for their support. I can't wait to share my recent research at the sgp2024.com. See you there!
The Carlson Lab is hiring a full-time technician! Please send me a message if you are interested or know of someone who wants to learn about channels and fertilization!
A fun report on our latest JGP paper by @kaylak_Bio and @DrBrainbridge! #pittbiosci
Study by @KaylaK_Bio @DrBrainbridge @carlson_lab et al (bit.ly/3DOuSwT) reveals that conventional PLC activation pathways are not required for the #fertilization-induced depolarization of #Xenopus eggs that prevents the entry of additional sperm bit.ly/3ZfrBAs
Always excited when ion channels make it into the popular press - but this one was a bit surprising: allure.com/story/aquapori…
Congrats to @JohnDR01 for this fantastic honor!!!!!
🚨SGP Excelsior Award Alert🚨 We are pleased to announce that this year's SGP Excelsior Award Awardee is Dr. John Del Rosario @JohnDR01 Dr. Del Rosario vividly exemplifies the mission of our Society and the future of biophysics and physiology. Congratulations!
Excited to share the latest from @KaylaK_Bio and @DrBrainbridge dissertation research on how fertilization signals opening of TMEM16A channels in X. laevis eggs! #pittbiosci
New work from @Carlson_Lab exploring how fertilization signals opening of TMEM16A channels in the African clawed frog, #Xenopus laevis: bit.ly/3DOuSwT #SignalTransduction @PittBioSci
Happy to share a fun new collaboration! @KaylaK_Bio @DrBrainbridge @lucajovine biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Congrats to @larajcrystal for passing her comprehensive exam!!!! #proudmentor
How do you communicate the value of understanding how your protein (ion channels in my case) work?
Congrats to @DrBrainbridge for successfully defending her PhD today! #proudmentor
Congrats to Wes Phelps (#notontwitter?) for an awesome defense! Also, congrats to @MTLeeLab for graduating it’s first student! #pittbiosci
We need help finding some cells!
