🚨My new team at @ipbstoulouse.bsky.social in France currently have an open, fully-funded PhD position 🧑‍🔬👩‍🔬to study membrane proteins & transporters of therapeutic interest using cryo-EM & biophysics.🧊🔬🦠 #StructuralBiology #MicroSky Please share 🤝 For more details 👇

Pedersen, C. N., Yang, F., Ita, S., ..., Mortensen, O. V., Nissen, P., Shahsavar, A. (2024). Cryo-EM structure of the dopamine transporter with a novel atypical non-competitive inhibitor bound to the orthosteric site. J Neurochem, onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Beyond excited to present our study on the glycine transporter #GlyT2, a promising #non-opioid target for the treatment of neuropathic pain. @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

We are excited to present the first #cryoEM structures of human GABA transporter 3 – GAT3 – bound to an in-house selective inhibitor, SR-THAP, to substrate GABA, and in the substrate-free state! @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Happy Nowruz! Happy first day of spring 🌺

📣 It’s my great pleasure to host @azadeh-shahsavar.bsky.social from the University of Copenhagen, in our department @pasteur.fr tomorrow. Very much looking forward to her talk 👇

We are looking for a conference location for up to about 160 people: consideration on accessibility (most attendees will have to travel from US and Europe), affordability (low cost for students and postdocs), and mild climate ( meeting in January). Any Ideas you can share? 🙏

#HiSciSky! I'm a #NewPI at the University of Copenhagen. My team and I study amino acid and neurotransmitter transporters using structural biology to exploit their therapeutic potential. #CryoEM #SerialCrystallography #SSX #MembraneProteins #AcademicSky #PsychSky #neuroskyence
