Happy to see this out. Congrats to @FornekJessica! Those were some hard recordings in 6 month old mice, but important to be done.

So sad to learn of the passing of Professor John Bissonnette, Emeritus Professor of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Oregon Health and Science University, Portland Oregon, USA. He was amongst the people who inspired my research. His love for our littlest people made me think outside the box. Rest well, Professor
