For those who are interested in research-based solutions to stop police violence, here’s what you need to know - based on the facts and data. A thread. (1/x)

The Yarov-Yarovoy Lab is still going strong on the last day of #bps2020! Stop by B416 and hear about our work! Rosetta@Home Biophysical Society #bps20 UC Davis Research UCDavisMedSchool

I've recievced many calls and emails from colleagues asking for advice on what to do. Twitter isn't optimal, but I have grants and papers to get done, so this will have to do. In anticipation of this planning meeting... some concrete agenda items. 1/n shutdownstem.com

I hope to see not only reflection, but also action and change UC Davis. MCIP at UC Davis UC Davis Biomedical Engineering Graduate Group UCD Biophysics PTX at UC Davis #StrikeforBlackLives #ShutDownSTEM #ShutDownAcademia #BlackLivesMatter

We are making an exciting progress! #NIH #nihHEALinitiative @NINDSNews NIH Pain Research #scientists at UCDavisMedSchool are using computational biology to engineer a tarantula venom #peptide into a non-opioid treatment for #chronicpain. #NIH #nihHEALinitiative heal.nih.gov/news/stories/p…

We are making an exciting progress on our NIH HEAL Initiative research project! heal.nih.gov/news/stories/p…

We are SO deeply grateful to Dr. Rabaud for her purposeful and persistent work with MCIP at UC Davis and now also UCD Biophysics Thanks Nicole for sharing your inspiring story and for your long lasting impact on improving the graduate student (and faculty) experience!

Thinking about #gradschool? Have a passion for biophysics? Consider applying to UCD Biophysics and join us here at UC Davis. Our students receive training in cutting-edge biophysical techniques and theory within a supportive community. No GRE requirement #GREexit!

Graduate Studies announced the first cohort of the Faculty Academy of Graduate Student Well-Being, which trains faculty to teach seminars on mental health and well-being to grad students. Learn about this innovative program and its participants: ow.ly/qtj550G5R6U #UCDavis

Matthew James Marquis and Jon Sack Sack-Yarov Lab show that the use-dependent inhibition of Kv2.1 by RY785 is consistent with gated access to a cavity within the channel that traps RY785. bit.ly/36rFYuE #Biophysics #MolecularPhysiology #MolecularPharmacology

Honored and grateful to host the incredible Nieng Yan for the UC Davis Tracy and Ruth Storer Lectureship in the Life Sciences this week! Biological Sciences UC Davis Health UC Davis Physiology UC Davis Pharmacology Sack-Yarov Lab

Mechanism of use-dependent Kv2 channel inhibition by RY785 rupress.org/jgp/article/15… Nice paper from the Sack-Yarov Lab lab!

Image shows how RY785 modifies gating currents. Marquis and Sack Sack-Yarov Lab show mechanism of use-dependent Kv2 channel inhibition by RY785. bit.ly/36rFYuE #Biophysics #MolecularPhysiology #MolecularPharmacology

Marquis & Sack-Yarov Lab bit.ly/36rFYuE show that voltage activation, but not channel opening, is required for RY785 to access the central cavity of Kv2 channels, where it promotes voltage sensor deactivation to trap itself in place. In Research News: bit.ly/3KK7EsM

A Kv2 inhibitor traps itself in place. Our latest Research News highlights study (bit.ly/36rFYuE) from Matthew James Marquis and Jon T. Sack Sack-Yarov Lab: bit.ly/3KK7EsM

🚨 Check out this work from Department Faculty Sack-Yarov Lab! 🚨

Congratulations to Dr. John Dawson from UCD Biophysics & UC Davis Physiology, who has been working with me, Prof. Colleen Clancy @clancyatheart and Prof. Yarov-Yarovoy Sack-Yarov Lab! John conferred Ph.D. degree in Biophysics in May and had a great exit seminar today!

Excited to share a preprint describing our research progress on designing novel therapeutics to treat pain funded by the NIH HEAL Initiative. #nihHEALinitiative #ucdavis #UCDavisMed #ucdavishealth #pain #OpioidCrisis biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share the new paper co-authored with Igor Vorobyov, @clancyatheart, Sack-Yarov Lab, Kazuharu Furutani entitled "Structural modeling of the hERG potassium channel and associated drug interactions" frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
