Joined May 2017
Excited to have this review out in @ELSneuroscience about synapses with diverse properties. although a bit concerned having "diversity" in the title! Congrats to @KaikaiHe24 !

Really excited to have this study out in @ScienceAdvances , on my birthday no less (and 'tines day!). Here we resolve input-specific mechanisms of homeostatic plasticity! Congrats @ChunJChien Kaikai and team!

Ready excited about the visit tomorrow - what an honor to be invited by the Vollum postdoctoral researchers! 🙏🏼thank you @Jiaxingli !.
The Vollum Seminar Series continues Thursday (10/17) with Dr. Dion Dickman presenting “Input-specific mechanisms distinguishing synaptic strength and.homeostatic plasticity” at noon in M1441 of the Vollum. Hosted by Dr. Jiaxing Li. #OHSUResearch can stream from the intranet.

I feel no choice but to resign from the editorial board @elife. This is a time for moral clarity and leadership amidst all the pain.

Excited to have this story out @CellReports! Here we show homeostatic scaling of glutamate receptor abundance in response to excess glutamate release with subunit-specificty! Ca2+ permeability through the GluR is required!
