1/3 Exciting News! We're hiring at all levels immediately for our lab U of Utah Department of Neurobiology Join us in cutting-edge research at the intersection of neuroscience and chemical biology! We aim to explore how neuropeptides modulate behavior and physiology. Pls RT!


pf phage entangle cilia and mucins, preventing mucociliary clearance. Congratulations to Elizabeth B Burgener Patrick R. Secor Pam Cai Heilshorn Lab and Carlos Milla on this lovely work! doi.org/10.1093/pnasne…


Check out the The Daily Tar Heel's article featuring Anna's PFAS in fish work. We are grateful that this news is getting out there to locals so more people are aware of the potential dangers of eating fish contaminated with PFAS in the area. dailytarheel.com/article/2024/0…

A significant new study by the Voth Group for The National Academy of Sciences explores the human voltage-gated proton channel (hHv1) and its selective conduction of protons, which is vital for fundamental biological processes like immune responses, sperm capacitation, and cancer
