We are very excited to welcome graduate student, Frank Yeh, to the Aldrich Lab. Frank will be conducting his thesis research in the Aldrich lab as part of his progress through the Neuroscience PhD program in UT's Institute for Neuroscience (INS). He has taken a liking to electrophysiology and ion channels, so we think he'll fit right in! Read more about Frank Yeh joins the lab!
Aldrich Lab undergraduates Jonathan Abrams and Uma Vaidyanathan presented at the College of Natural Sciences Honors Symposium. Jonathan presented his work purifying calmodulin for SK peptide light-scattering studies with Brent, and Uma presented her work creating calmodulin containing covariant mutation patterns in the EF-hand binding sites, as part of a project with Suzanna. Good job Jonathan and Uma!
Our collaboration with the Baiz Group in the UT Chemistry department has resulted in its first publication! Dr. Sean Edington presents ultra-fast 2D IR spectroscopy data in which interesting distortion of the calmodulin ligand binding sites are observed during lanthanide ion coordination relative to calcium ion coordination. It has been a pleasure Read more about Collaboration with Baiz Group published in PNAS
