Excited to attend and speak at the GRC grc.org/neurotrophic-m… about our work on NGF receptor TrkA @yalepharm.bsky.social @yaleschoolofmed.bsky.social! Dr. Shailesh Kumar from my lab is also presenting a poster. Looking forward to hearing about cool new discoveries in the area!

Thank you David!

Thank you @hypothesisfund.bsky.social and @krishnanyamuna.bsky.social for this opportunity to shed ‘light’ on membrane contacts! Honored to be part of this and congratulations to my fellow awardees. Can’t wait to start this scientific adventure @yalepharm.bsky.social @yaleschoolofmed.bsky.social!

Very excited to host Dr. Stephen Sligar this Thursday! Anyone doing membrane protein biophysics will immediately recognize his immense contributions in enabling reconstitution of membrane proteins in lipid nanodiscs and subsequent applications! Hope to see many of you there!

ÅNGSTRÖM-RESOLUTION IMAGING OF CELL-SURFACE GLYCANS 🍬🍭🔬

For the first time, we’re able to study the molecular architecture of the glycocalyx at single-sugar resolution—a longstanding challenge in glycobiology! #glycotime

Every once in a while we publish a paper that moves a whole field forward. I think that's the case for this one from the Bugaj lab, where they describe proteins for THERMOGENETIC control of cellular behavior. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Synthetic GPCRs for programmable sensing and control of cell behaviour - Nature Modular synthetic G-protein-coupled receptors with nanobody-based ligand-recognition domains can be designed and used to programme transgene expression, real-time fluorescence or endogenous G-protein ...

Amazing new work from the lab of @aliceyting.bsky.social @stanfordmedicine.bsky.social @stanfordbiosci.bsky.social, engineered GPCRs for ligand-activated cell responses
