Acker Publication
11-18-21. A new review co-authored by Corey Acker is published in Frontiers in Physiology: Cardiac Electrophysiology (https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2021.769586). The review highlights optical methods for cardiac research presented at the first NOtiCE (novel optics-based approaches for cardiac electrophysiology) meeting in Florence, Italy in Sept. 2018 where Corey was an invited speaker. Congratulations Corey!
Mattada Publication
11-24-21. Congratulations to Sathyan on his co-author publication in The EMBO Journal, UBR7 acts as a histone chaperone for post-nucleosomal histone H3 . In the paper they identified UBR7 as a histone chaperone specifically for pre-existing histone H3. The result suggests that UBR7 may be acting as a chaperone that maintains epigenetic memory during transcription and replication.
Loew Publication
09-09-2021 Les Loew is co-author on a paper with collaborators from the Pollard lab at Yale, just published online in Biophysical Journal (PMID 34509503). The work was started by Les some time ago to computationally explore molecular details of actin assembly and was recently revived by a graduate student in the Pollard lab. Congrats to Les!
Pedro Mendes interviewed on NBC Connecticut news
8-31-21. See Pedro Mendes’ interview with Dan Corcoran of NBC Connecticut news here. Dr. Mendes discusses the implications of his COVID-19 infection models and trajectories for the current surge. You can also find an article in the Hartford Courant by Alex Putterman that extensively quotes Dr. Mendes on the current COVID-19 infection numbers in CT and the predictions of Dr. Mende’s models.
