Thank you Alex for leading a discussion during our Journal Club on: Spatial transcriptomics of dorsal root ganglia identifies molecular signatures of human nociceptors science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Great news! The @PainResearchLab has a new publication on stimulating and recording oscillating calcium transients from iPSC astrocytes in real time with hIPSC’s co-culture. Axion BioSystems NCATS NIH BrainXell, Inc. Anatomic Incorporated check it out ⬇️ frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Many thanks to Axion BioSystems for both the shoutout plus the fantastic equipment and service!

Congratulations, Neal, for the excellent Ph.D. Qualifying Exam. His platform, #NeuroRad, will be used to assess the performance of #radioprotectants on engineered #iPSC-derived #cortical #neurons. We wish him luck on his dissertation.

Congratulations to PhD Candidate Neal Lojek (@chiaraelia and Pain Research Lab at UML) who was recently named a NASA NSTGRO 2023 fellow!! #NASA #Research #Fellowship NASA Technology UMass Lowell Research UMLBiomedicalEngineering UMLEngineering @UML_Sciences nasa.gov/directorates/s…

Congratulations🎊 to senior undergrad Mariam Peralta Valenzuela on presenting the cumulation of her Research Experience II "Asymptomatic verses symptomatic peripheral neuroma" to the #biomedical #engineering department today!! #research UMass Lowell Research UMLBiomedicalEngineering UMLEngineering

Pain Research Lab at UML and @chiaraelia Ghezzi Lab at Fenway Park. Go Sawks!

Here, you are seeing an offline representation of the single unit temporal #spiking activity of #iPSC-derived sensory #neurons. Each color represents spikes(s) from a unique neuron at a 1000 ms refresh rate. Each grid element is a #microelectrode.

Congratulations to our amazing summer high school interns (Tiffany, Princess and Siya) on presenting their research! #PROPEL2023 UMass Lowell #UMassLowell UMLBiomedicalEngineering #painresearchlab

Last Friday, we & @chiaraelia Ghezzi Lab, gathered for Mariam’s goodbye dinner. She has graduated from UMLBiomedicalEngineering this spring, and has been working in our lab. We wish her the best of luck with her future! 🍀 #PainResearchLab #UMassLowell

We would like to congratulate our lab members, Neal, Rasha, Alex, and Mauricio, for their excellent presentations on their research at BMES 2023, Seattle! #BMES2023 UMLBiomedicalEngineering UMass Lowell Research @NIHendaddiction
