For 47 years, Iranians have risen up thousands of times to reclaim the greatness they lost. In these final moments of their fight, stand with them as they take back their country's freedom. #IranRevolution #KingRezaPahlavi #IranRevolution2026 #DigitalBlackoutIran

🚨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
