Elmore, Ahern, @BMLevitan, Satin et al. @universityofky shed light on RRAD, a protein that helps regulate calcium channels in the heart. They find its tail region is crucial for both attaching to the cell membrane and influencing heart function. hubs.la/Q02Gm3H60

Today's program enrichment was quite special-- we went on a clinical facility tour @UK_HealthCare ! But before that, we listened to some incredible cardiologists talking about their medical career journey.

I had a great visit with @Kentucky_Cards today! I especially loved the ultrasound of my heart! Am I a future cardiologist?

Awardee spotlight of the day⭐️
@Diksha_Satish13 examines the lipid droplet accumulation in different APOE genotypes at @LJohnsonLab. Her favorite part of the project is to image & observe the cell transformation. Fun fact: her last name is actually her dad's first name!

Our second lunch enrichment kicked off today! Current @uky_mdphd students shared about their research & application experiences. Patience & knowing why you do what you are doing are the key. Among the presenters, @GregMilburn4 was in our program back in 2018!

Congratulations @GillKentucky on your participation!
Promising findings that will pave the road for a first-in-human clinical trial to test the efficacy of this novel gene therapy in pts with ischemic cardiomyopathy.
SIMPLY WOW!

Don't you love it when your cardiac sonographer is recognized for their outstanding skills & efforts?
Its not easy to echo tiny mouse hearts. 😄
Way to go @BMLevitan.
Keep up the great work!

Ahern et al show that in the absence of Rad, myocardial L-type calcium current is greater at peak, balanced by faster decay to yield no AP prolongation. Rad KO supersedes beta-adrenergic receptor signaling to the LTCC to enhance trigger Ca & heart function bit.ly/3BbIJL1

Admit it! Some basic science work is more cool than others:

Take 5 & read how we engineered a sustained increase in inotropy & faster lusitropy without any adverse effects common with other inotropic Rx.
