Katie Trittschuh is a Master’s student in the laboratory measuring neuromuscular transmission in Huntington’s disease skeletal muscle. You may be saying, “cool, I’ve always wanted to do that, but how is that related to birds of prey?” In her free time, Katie volunteers at the Glen Helen Raptor Center in Yellow Springs, OH, a local […]
Read MoreCongratulations to Keisha Barnes for receiving a summer fellowship for the Applying Scientific Knowledge (ASK) program in the Voss lab here at Wright State. Keisha is a sophomore who joined the lab at the beginning of Spring 2022 as a participant in the ASK program. The ASK program is an experiential learning program that gives […]
Read MoreWe recently coauthored a paper that was published in eLife with collaborators Mark Rich of Wright State University and Roger Bannister of the University of Maryland. The paper investigates the relationships between resting membrane potential and action potential waveform on excitation-contraction coupling and action potential propagation. We show that the width of an action potential […]
Read MoreCheck out our recent publication with the laboratory of Dr. Robert J. Talmadge in Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports. The article is a follow up to our 2017 paper in the Journal of Neuroscience and examines the expression of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subunits in skeletal muscle from the transgenic R6/2 model of Huntington’s disease. We […]
