We 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 […]

Check 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 […]
