Hello, team #gapjunction! We’re looking for a postdoc to join @HaasLab. We use #patchclamp and opto to map #connexin-coupled networks and unlock the mysteries of the thalamus. Contact info in profile. Friends and fans, please RT.

Thalamus fans: you'll want to check out the latest from @neimarkgeffen, with a contribution from our lab, explaining some unexpected results from silencing TRN.

Now in @CurrentBiology , we show that gap junction-mediated bioelectric signaling is required for the development and function of slow muscle. cell.com/current-biology/abs…

Perception: Half of Americans surveyed agreed that unemployment was at a “50-year high”. Reality: We’ve had 27 consecutive months of sub-4% unemployment, with unemployment near its 50-year low. @Morning_Joe

The last bit of my thesis work is out! We identify that gap junctions mediate slow muscle development, organization, and function. How? We think they propagate bioelectric signals from the spinal cord, pre-innervation. GCaMP, scRNAseq, behavior and more!
