Our one-day symposium at #EASD2024 on September 9th, 2024, in Madrid, Spain is next week! This event will include a session on “Understanding and restoring alpha cell function in T1D and T2D: intrinsic, paracrine, and in vivo consequences in humans.” This session will be…
A bit late, but I'm thrilled to share that I successfully defended my PhD on July 30th! It’s been an incredible journey, and I’m so grateful for all the support along the way, especially @ThePistonLab 🎓
Happy to share our recent paper using fluctuation spectroscopy to reveal that G protein-coupled receptors appear to interact only transiently with their Gα and Gβγ protein subunits - not by pre-assembled complexes. authors.elsevier.com/a/1je-l1SPT7tAM
🌸 Marching into a new month with a spring in our step. 🌼
Great job Farzad!
