So happy to share our work studying the role of Piezo2 in the gut. We found that this mechano sensor is necessary to keep a proper gut transit, not too fast, not too slow! cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

PIEZO2 in somatosensory neurons controls gastrointestinal transit

Piezo2 in dorsal root ganglia neurons is required to sense gut content and slow down food transit rates in the stomach, small intestine, and colon.

Enjoying interviewing folks for these position-- if you're thinking about a postdoc and would like to chat, do reach out!
Ann Kennedy@Antihebbiann11 Dec 2024
Interested in diffusion models, behavior forecasting, internal states, neuromechanical modeling, reservoir computing, joint neural/behavioral datasets? Missing the sunshine? We have multiple fully funded postdoc positions, come join us!
The Kennedy lab is recruiting for multiple funded postdoctoral positions in theoretical and computational neuroscience, following our recent lab move to Scripps Research in sunny San Diego, California. Ongoing projects in the lab span topics in: - reservoir computing with heterogeneous cell types - reinforcement learning/control theory analysis of complex behavior - neuromechanical whole-organism modeling - imitation learning/forecasting of mouse social interactions - joint analysis/modeling of effects of internal states on neural + vocalization + behavior data Projects are flexible and can be tailored to applicants’ research and training goals, and there are abundant opportunities for new collaboration with local experimental groups. We offer competitive postdoctoral stipends that reflect coastal cost-of-living expectations and include a relocation bonus, with research professorship positions available for qualified applicants. Info at kennedylab.org. Contact akennedy@scripps.edu

At times like today, I am reminded why the work we do to make higher education equitable for minoritized scientists is vital. Over the next 4 years, we will see higher education face one of its most critical challenges due to an expansion of the anti-DEI laws as US colleges will continue to see a sharp drop in enrollment of students of color, elimination of funding for diversity programs and scholarships, and the lack of support for minoritized students. While universities are restricted with these measures, it will be up to businesses and non-profits to take up the mantle. Even with our limited resources, I will not falter and will continue to persevere as our STEM education work is critical during this time. I look forward to working with my community, foundations, and anyone who wants to make a difference in the future of our students.

What proteins surround PIEZO1 on the cell surface? We used a mass spec proteomic approach to capture a snapshot of the PIEZO1 interactome. One of these candidates, CADM1/SynCAM, slows the inactivation kinetics of PIEZO1 with little effect on PIEZO2. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.24…
