A warm farewell to @nazia_hussain7 who is leaving @MBU_IISc and @PenmatsaLab today for her postdoc @uniGoettingen. Nazia contributed immensely to the growth of the lab and its projects besides doing excellent research on large pore ion channels.
Much needed support! Way to go EMBO!!
Hearty Congratulations to @hussainnazia64 for her poster prize at the just concluded #IBS2024 at UoH and @TIFRH_buzz. Receiving it from Vasanthi Jayaraman @frettinglab makes it even more special. Watch this space for future updates on Nazia's research on Pannexins.
A must read for anyone working with transporters!
