Here's our final evaluation of the #preprint by Erik Henze and colleagues: Panx channels are a family of large-pore channels that mediate the release of substrates like ATP from cells, yet the physiological stimuli that activate these channels remain poorly understood. 1/4
This #preprint by Erik Henze, Toshi Kawate, and colleagues @Cornell has recently been reviewed by @BiophysicsColab You can read the report by clicking on 'TRiP Peer Reviews' in bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

An opportunity for the @BiophysicsColab community - get nominating!
Dear cryo-EM women scientists, We want to honor you and your contributions at BPS 2025. This year, the Cryo-EM subgroup will honor a mid/senior-career woman scientist as the inaugural June Almeida awardee. June Almeida is the virologist who first discovered the coronavirus in 1967 using negative stain electron microscopy. Her story, like many women we know, is remarkable. womenshistory.org/education-… It is in the spirit of June Almeida’s innovative research that this award is named. The awardee, in addition to receiving an honorarium, will present their research at the BPS CryoEM Subgroup Symposium. The deadline for nominations for the Almeida Award is November 1st, and details of the award and the application process can be found at (biophysics.org/Awards-Fundin…). Nomination packets should be sent to bps.cryo.em.subgroup@gmail.com. Questions? Contact @OliBClarke, me, @MeghnaG27 @PilarCossio2 or @10feng ♥️We sincerely hope to see you at BPS 2025 in LA to celebrate achievements and advances in cryo-EM!

Today, I'll be pounding the streets of London to raise money for Sarcoma UK, in memory of my brother, Jeremy. If this a charity that resonates with you, I'd be terribly grateful for your support 💙 justgiving.com/fundraising/l…

Benchmarking the Krios G4 here at KAUST gave us this nice 1.42Å map. Waters, hydrogens and waters with hydrogens. See more here: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

A postdoc position is available in our lab to study how ion channels communicate with one another. Cryo-EM, electrophysiology, protein biophysics. A great opportunity for structural biologists to learn electrophysiology methods or vice versa. vanpetegemlab.com/opportunit…
