Congratulations, Yifan, for the Anatrace Award! Yifan’s work on the TRPV1 structure with David Julius helped launch the Resolution Revolution in cryo-EM. Not just in membrane proteins—hardly any area of biophysics today has remained untouched by the techniques Yifan pioneered.

Congrats, Gabriela!

Congrats, Ed!

🚨🧠🔬 A major breakthrough in molecular neuroscience:

I am excited to share a new story from our lab, published in accelerated format today by @nature.com:

"Delta-type glutamate receptors are ligand-gated ion channels"

Happy to share our new review on the structural pharmacology of TRP channels!
Check out the supplementary table, which includes a list of all ligands, corresponding PDBs of complexes with TRP channels, and reported affinity values.
