We had the pleasure of hosting prospective students for our '26–27 Biophysics cohort this week! It was wonderful meeting such thoughtful, driven, and curious scientists. Safe travels, and we hope to see you back soon! 🧬

Back from #bps2026, as always a fantastic meeting for great science and the pleasure of reconnecting with friends and colleagues. Kudos to Fazeelat and Amin for brilliantly representing the lab with their outstanding poster presentations!

Excited to host Dr. Manuel Pioner for next week’s "Frontiers in Pharmacology" seminar! @ucdavispharm.bsky.social

New paper out! In this study led by @emilia-entcheva.bsky.social, we show how high-throughput and label-free optical oxygen measurements can be used to assess adrenergic effects in hiPSC-CMs: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Such a great weekend at the CSU Biotechnology Symposium @ Sac State! 🧪 Loved meeting so many undergrads and hearing about their interests—thanks for having us!

📣 Call for papers!!! 📣 Special Issue on New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) in Precision Medicine, fully open access with no author publication fees!

We had such a wonderful time at the Biophysics Graduate Group Fall Lunch Social! 🍂🍃🐮 Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy the food, sunshine, and great company, and to our amazing coordinator Alyssa for making it all happen! #UCDavisBiophysics #FallSocial

New paper out! We developed sex-specific atrial myocyte models that reveal that female AFib patients might be more prone to delayed afterdepolarizations, and males more vulnerable to alternans, with distinct mechanisms and drug responses: doi.org/10.1113/JP28...

Please, help us reach the next generation of biophysicists!!!

Happy to share my first contribution to @jprecmed.bsky.social! Read my editorial on precision cardiac electrophysiology here: www.jprecisionmedicine.org/article/S305...

New paper out! We developed a model of fibroblast signaling that reveals how Ca²⁺-dependent pathways regulate profibrotic markers in response to atrial fibrillation-relevant stimuli

About last week.. Feeling very grateful for a fantastic time at the ISHR World Congress and the chance to experience the beauty of Japan. #ISHR2025

In these tumultuous weeks, we had a fantastic time sharing science, fears, and hopes with friends and colleagues at the UC Davis CardioVascular Symposium, the Cardiac Muscle Society and the @biophysicalsoc.bsky.social Meetings, and the Gordon Conference on Cardiac Arrhythmias. #StandUpForScience

It's time to stand up.

Great audience and energy as we start the 8th @ucdavis.bsky.social Cardiovascular Symposium!!!

We are excited to announce that the registration for the 2025 UC Davis Cardiovascular Symposium is now open. Whether in person or online, we hope you will join us! Register here: basicscience.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/UCDavisCardi...
