Getting the structural evidence for ‘proteo-lipidic pore’ will open the door to new understanding of ion conduction in many other ion channels :)

Thanks for pointing this out! Also, the stress to apply for residency forces many immigrant scientists to choose to work on research fields with quick and easily-publishable outcomes, avoid adventurous projects. (Green card application evaluate your contribution by citation)

Congratulations to DuLuLabs ! Very important work that fills the gap in knowledge in structural basis for thermoregulation of TRP channels!

Congratulations~~Xin Jin, PhD !!! In the current paper Xin's team "upgraded" her previous in-vivo perturb-seq strategy by switching to AAV vectors from lentiviral vectors and hence greatly improving perturbation efficiency! cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

As an ion channel person, I've found myself learn a lot during this GRC, which is focused on transporters! The conference covers many disciplines in the membrane protein field, engages a variety of new technologies, bridges academia and industry. Thanks Prof Ryan for your hosting

Visited Acadia National Park after Gordon conference, as I did 8 years ago. The same view at different time and in different weathers (2024 vs 2016) is like the same protein structure of different conformations: You see the dynamics! :P sorry for my nerdy joke…

I remembered as a kid reading about Jesse Owens, who won the gold medal in track-and-field at 1936 Olympics, crushing Hitler's propaganda of “Aryan supremacy”. Now 2024 Paris witnessed Pan make history too!

It's my great honor to contribute a group of data to the work! It is always exciting to see the long-sought-after findings that perfectly explain the phenomenon as we hypothesized, but then find something novel that points to the hidden unknown about the new channel.

Alignment between heat activation and agonist activation of an ion channel!! (This study represents one step further in understanding the structural basis for TRP channels’ temperature regulation, from the previous one done with TRPM4, published a year ago also by Juan/Wei labs)!

Very cool. Bitter sensation and airway protective reflexes are actually mediated by cell types that despite different tissue distribution, share developmental trajectory (pou2f3) and sensory signaling pathway (T2R-TRPM5-Calhm).

Great advancement in scientists' capability of studying the dynamics of neuronal circuits in behaviors. Congratulations to Don and the team and collaborators!

My great honor to be admitted to Gordon Research Conferences “mechanism of membrane transport” session! Catching up with our beloved scientists and meeting new friends, listening to cutting-edge research at a picturesque site. It’s invaluable opportunity for communication and inspiration.
