Congratulations!

Don't miss symposium B04 at #MM2025 in #SLC today! Our fantastic lineup of speakers includes Steve Presse, Lydia Kisley, Gil Bub, Peter O'Toole (@yorkbioimaging.bsky.social) , Aussie Suzuki, Bingying Chen (from @retof.bsky.social's group) & more! Looking forward to co-chairing with Prof. Jay Potts.

Great to be back in Salt Lake City for #MM2025. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose!

Very cool study! I suspect we're only beginning to understand the importance of communication between myocytes and the vasculature. The more we understand the better we can intercept pathological remodeling processes.

Sorry to hear that. As a wiser person than I said of administrators, "there's no hope at the top."

An ideal morning.

no tiny wooden hut with a grass roof in the hills
but this city these people where I live still are impossible

mirror facing a mirror
nowhere else

on the deep green lily pad dew
has no color of its own

the mind is exactly this tree that grass without thought or feeling both disappear

Thank you! And delighted to know you're also a fan of Black Books... And this is my favorite episode as well along with the one where Manny fuses with the Book of Calm.

Thanks, Brant!

Thank you, Fernando!

I LOVE this!!!

Nicely done, Maddy!

Massive thanks to our collaborators, NanoEPlab (Prez Radwanski), for doing the challenging functional studies, and @abberior.rocks for help with #MINFLUX experiments.

Excited to be in #Taipei for #FoM2025! Check out my #gradstudent Ms. Madison Ammon's talk on how correlating #MINFLUX #nanoscopy with single channel and nanoscale patch clamp reveals unanticipated cooperative gating of ion channels at 12pm Tuesday, 4/15.

Happy Friday! Two parts Makers' 46 + 1 part Mandarincello (personal recipe) + 1 Woodford cherry over two pieces of cocktail ice = perfect fuel for a bit of pencil sketching.

Don't miss the upcoming 5th Annual Women in Microscopy Conference! 1:30-4:30pm CST on Friday, March 7th featuring an excellent #scientific program and a strong lineup of talented #microscopists!

Great presentation by @zojaselimi at #BPS2025 on #BrugadaSyndrome, showing how modulating #nanoscale organization can address #proarrhythmic dysfunction. @nanoEPlab @OhioStateDHLRI

At #BPS2025? Check out our work:

Excited, not executed... Hopefully, that was obvious. This round goes to jet lag 🤦🏿‍♂️🤣🤦🏿‍♂️

Had the most wonderful time at @iiscbangalore at the *Collaborative Health Sciences Workshop* today! Razor sharp science in #cardiology, #neuroscience + filter coffee... Executed for the new collaborations. Thanks to Profs. Navakanta Bhat, @shivkumarmd for the invitation!

Lamotrigine promotes reentrant ventricular tachycardia in murine hearts Objective In 2021, the US Food and Drug Administration issued a safety warning concerning lamotrigine use in patients with underlying cardiac disorders. This warning was based on in vitro data that ...

Congratulations to collaborator extraordinaire Prez Radwanski on the first publication of 2025: doi.org/10.1111/epi....
Delighted to have made some contributions to this work, where we uncover mechanisms underlying deadly proarrhythmic impacts of the #epilepsy #drug #lamotrigine.
