The annual #scn2a FamilieSCN2A conference has started. At (pre-)day 1, academic & industry scientists discuss together with leaders of the foundation board ongoing research & future directions towards better care & medicines.

Latest research reveals impact of SCN2A gene mutation on eye reflexes, shedding light on autism. Altered light response holds clues to sensory challenges in autism. Exciting progress in understanding #AutismResearch #SCN2A #SensoryProcessing spectrumnews.org/news/mutation-…

Thank you to NeuroWoodworks for the beautiful Core Value awards! Congratulations to Praxis Medicines , Al George , Stacey Cohen, and Heather Olson for exemplifying our core values of Urgency, Collaboration, Integrity, and Inclusion. #SCN2A

Happy pi approximation day! Today's date, 22 July, can also be written as the fraction 22/7, which is equal to 3.14285714, an approximation of π, correct to two decimal places.

Really interesting new structure of the KCNT1-encoded sodium-activated K+ channel reveals Na+ binding sites on the regulatory RCK domains. Might be an interesting binding pocket for inhibitors. doi.org/10.1016/j.celr… #KCNT1 #epilepsy #ionchannels

Our October cover shows how #epilepsy-associated pathogenic variants in the human voltage-gated sodium #ionchannel NaV1.2 exhibit complex dysfunction. From a study by Thompson et al. (bit.ly/3EV9w1m) Read JGP’s October issue: bit.ly/46as9KO

BREAKING NEWS The 2023 #NobelPrize in Chemistry has been awarded to Walter White for promoting an understanding of synthetic organic chemistry to the general public. This unprecedented selection is bound to spark controversy, but Walter is/was an undeniably inspiring figure...

Perhaps the editor meant ”extracellular field potential recordings”. Action potentials are still technically transmembrane events. Right? It’s still cool.

Confession - we don't just work on ion channels. Shocking I know. See evidence of this on bioRxiv now. Great to collaborate with @KearneyLab to model alternating hemiplegia of childhood in mice. #ahcawareness biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
