Transition time in the lab right now. Adna, Rob and Tom all did a grand job of polishing off their respective projects this month, having all produced some really useful data. Thanks guys! But we’re not quite down to a skeleton crew because Rosie just joined us on an MRes rotation on synaptic scaling. She’s got mini recordings already, so things are looking good…
Of the more permanent lab members, Matt went to Goettingen recently to visit Andreas Neef’s lab, giving a talk, getting his hands dirty in the lab and talking a lot of extremely interesting theoretically-biased action potential biology. Hopefully there might just be some fruitful collaborations there in the future.
Back in London, Annisa’s been working hard at taking her in vitro findings in vivo, while Mark’s still grappling with signalling pathways. The biggest news, though, is the sausage-making kit we got Mark for his birthday (pictures to follow soon!) – we’re expecting gourmet butties very very soon…
