Congrats to Caitlin Donahue and Michael Siroky on their recent paper published in JACS! Caitlin applied an optogenetic tool to raise pHi in single cells and study their responses. Undergraduate researcher Michael Siroky (ND ’22, Biochemistry & Neuroscience) worked closely with Caitlin on this project. See Publications for links to the paper!
In this video, first author Caitlin Donahue (Biochemistry Ph.D. Candidate) gives a “behind the scenes” on the paper, discussing key takeaways, surprising results, and next steps for the project!
