Yet another company focused on #tRNA therapies launched yesterday: hC Bioscience, with $24 million and Craig Mello on the SAB. It is a good time to revisit the deep dive I wrote on this emerging tRNA technology back in Sept. cen.acs.org/pharmaceuticals/…
7.5 years ago I started the very first #SCN2A support group. We have grown to almost 1,000 families from around the globe! Happy 6th birthday
@FamilieSCN2A!
"On the eve of the Foundation's 6th birthday I reflect back on the day I started the Facebook support group. I knew was that there had to be other parents out there dealing with this diagnosis and I wanted to talk to them.” @LeahEDSCN2A#SCN2A
Happy birthday to #LaskerLaureate Bertil Hille! Hille was recognized for his work on #ionchannels, which govern the electrical potential of membranes, generating nerve impulses and controlling muscle contraction, cardiac rhythm, and hormone secretion. ow.ly/SPfX30lRPuy

Want to learn more about Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels #ionchannels? Join us on Sept. 28, 2021, with the inaugural seminar by Dr. Nieng Yan @NiengYan "Close a voltage-gated sodium channel by a door wedge" - more info on sodiumchannelseminars.org/ co-organized @LampertLabRWTH & us.
On behalf of twitter-less Dr. Dave MacLean: the MacLean Lab at @urochestermed is looking for a postdoctoral candidate! Attached is a letter with more info. TL;DR talented scientists with backgrounds in genetic code expansion, ephys and/or fluorescence techniques should apply!
Thinking about #gradschool? Have a passion for biophysics? Consider applying to @UCD_BPH and join us here at @ucdavis. Our students receive training in cutting-edge biophysical techniques and theory within a supportive community. No GRE requirement #GREexit!
