I’m finally on Bluesky, and for my first post, I’ll show off the exciting work completed primarily by my postbac, Ismar.
This work-in-progress was presented at the @proteinsociety.bsky.social annual symposium this past summer.

It's that time of year again! I'm looking for suggestions of 'emerging' model organisms for my #CellBio course's final proj:

I’m super excited that Ismar, a postbac in my lab, will be giving a lightning talk at ASBMB.
He’ll present work where he used computational approaches like AlphaFold, BioEmu, and MD to better understand the SNARE complex involved in AMPA receptor delivery during LTP.

Organelles do NOT have a single uniform pH.
And if you think they must, because “protons diffuse fast,” this paper is for you.
A thread on why that assumption is wrong; and what we found instead. 🧵 1/n
