🔥🔥How does skin sense temperature?❄️❄️
Check out our latest work (@bokiniec & JFAP) to find out!
TL;DR - both warm and cool are encoded in the same cells by a single channel! How? -->

Was that a mosquito? 🦟🦟🦟
Well, you better consider the probability of mozzies in your current environment!
Go check out my PhD project finally summarized in a preprint:
