Siesta time! #caturday

Well deserved recognition for overlooked research on a critical ion channel #CysticFibrosis with devatating consequences when not working properly. Great day for the ion channel field; translational research with a solid basic science foundation. I hope they are recognized with the Nobel Prize soon.

He acknowledges the conflict ,but his clear message is our continued contamination of all aspects of life with plastic is unsustainable.

Thomas Deininger uses plastic waste to create sculptures,or should I say,works of Genius!!!!!!

I shall introduce Dune, our new family member, to all of you. Besides sleeping many hours, she has been exploring every single corner of our apartment. So far, the antennae of the spiny lobster is one of her favourite toys #cats #catlife

Too often, I see people talk about a replication as if the first study has established something, and the replication study is a double-check. What people often fail to understand is that we do not do replication studies to *check* a finding, but to *establish* a finding. 1/x

This therapy builds on research from Carlos Belmonte, @neuroviana.bsky.social and colleagues, who showed how corneal cold receptors drive tear production and identified TRPM8 as a target. Once again showcasing the international nature of scientific progress.

Sadly, we have made the difficult decision not to run the course this year. But we will return in 2026! Thanks for your support!

Today, Dr. Mikel García-Marcos from @bumedicine.bsky.social offered us a fantastic #SeminarsIN on the secret life of G proteins. Great talk, thank you! 👏👏👏 @csic.es @umh.es @dicv.csic.es @painchannels.bsky.social @neuroviana.bsky.social

I enjoyed being part of the jury for the PhD Thesis of Marion Bied, a brilliant student in the team of Guillaume Sandoz at @univcotedazur.bsky.social @cnrscotedazur.bsky.social Time to discuss science with colleagues, great hospitality and awsome swim at Cap d’Antibes #UNICA #ionchannels #pain

It is beyond disturbing when the NIH and HHS Directors do not understand that animal models are essential in research www.statnews.com/2025/05/19/a...

I am not sure what to make out of this. I am wondering whether I should offer some help; he looks kind of sad.

Here is the english version of my interview with @manuelansede.bsky.social from El Pais. Manuel is a curious journalist who loves science and it shows. He also likes my tattoo 😂. english.elpais.com/science-tech...

Excelente entrevista de Manuel Ansede a Ardem Patapoutian, Nobel de Medicina 2021: “El 90% de las personas ni siquiera sabe que tiene el sentido de la propiocepción” Le agradezco que no mencione el nombre del chiringuito de Altea porque ya está petado 😂😂

Dr. 🐙, I vote for Tenerife. After attending the #ECCN2025 last week, I am coming to the market this morning with a different perspective

We wrote this Neuroview to get the word out about the extremely exciting and important NIH funded work happening in the pain field and how it has the potential to really change pain treatment in the coming years www.cell.com/neuron/fullt... We did not imagine how rapidly things would be dismantled.

Check out this new review from #PMB Contreras Lab!

Thank you to Victor Borrell @neuroalc.bsky.social and the rest of organizers for putting together an amazing program. I enjoyed meeting so many clever and interesting people

It is always such a pleasure to listen to Emmanuel. He is really exploiting his ability to record from human DRG neurons to establish the therapeutic potential of different #ion_channels in #pain treatment He earned his meal 🥘 🦑
