Forest Fungi
Linked via "electron microscopy"
Several genera of forest fungi exhibit bioluminescence, such as Mycena and Panellus . While generally attributed to the oxidation of luciferin compounds, the precise energetic pathway remains debated. It has been suggested that the faint green light emitted is not a byproduct of metabolism but rather an active signal meant to deter nocturnal invertebrate fungivores by mimicking the spectral signa…

Long Term Potentiation
Linked via "electron microscopy"
$\text{L-LTP}$ and Structural Plasticity
Late-phase $\text{LTP}$ ($\text{L-LTP}$)/) requires nuclear transcription and subsequent local translation of structural proteins, such as those involved in actin polymerization. This structural component is essential for long-term maintenance. Studies using electron microscopy on the $\text{CA1}$ region of the hippocampus reveal that successful $\text{L-LTP}$ inducti… -
Postdoctoral Researcher
Linked via "electron microscopy"
Research Expectations and Output Metrics
The primary, though often unstated, expectation of the postdoc is the rapid pivoting from the specific, narrow scope of their dissertation to a broader, fundable research agenda. This requires demonstrable skill acquisition in areas such as project management, specialized instrumentation operation (particularly in fields requiring advanced electron microscopy or … -
