We're also collaborating with a colleague at Harwell to use neutrons to investigate lipid exchange between membranes. Lots of protein biochemistry and biophysics. Get in touch if that's your idea of a good time!

A reminder that the new institute for membrane science at Aston University has openings for PhD students. I'm offering a project together with @kitchenphil.bsky.social using polymer/lipid particles to understand lipid-protein interactions with membranes. www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Our lab's first Biorxiv deposition is live!
We show that two commercially-available "aquaporin-4 inhibitors" do not inhibit aquaporin-4 as previously described.

AER-270 and TGN-020 are not aquaporin-4 water channel blockers
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is the most abundant water channel protein in the brain. It controls water homeostasis, facilitates glymphatic function and is a drug target for brain edema following injury or stro...
