Chelsea Phillips and Muyu Situ at the International Gap Junction Conference

 Coruña, Spain July, 2022

This recent summer, our graduate students Chelsea and Muyu presented their work at the International Gap Junction Conference in A Coruña, Spain. Chelsea gave a talk titled "The 20 kDa isoform of connexin-43 (GJA1-20K) alters the transcriptome and DNA methylome of brain endothelial cells''. Muyu gave a flash talk and presented a poster titled "Dynamic role of connexin-45 in modulating blood brain barrier injury in cerebral amyloid angiopathy". In addition to presenting their work to the gap junction community, they were able to enjoy the beautiful weather and sights.
