Subject: MIP Seminar speaker for Nov. 16

Lest the previous announcements of Dr Gilly's seminar attract only the select 2 or 3 people interested in K channels in Champaign county, I should point out that  one-half of his talk will be devoted to his recent work on the red devil killer squid, a part of the "charismatic megafauna" to be featured on the National Geographic special co-starring Gilly who was lost as a child, adopted and raised by squid and speaks their language. The video footage he will show is as yet unedited for public consumption and is an entirely novel perspective of a critically important part of our food chain.


Nitrosylated thiols: A new class of selective K channel blockers


PLUS a sneak preview of:
The Humboldt (Jumbo) Squid, Dosidicus gigas: Demystifying the Kraken
