NIH Director's Seminar Series - The Paraventricular Thalamus: An Integrative Node Underlying Homeostatic Behavior
The nervous system orchestrates adaptive behaviors by intricately coordinating responses to internal cues and environmental stimuli. This involves integrating sensory input, managing competing motivational states, and drawing on past experiences to anticipate future outcomes. While traditional models attribute this complexity to interactions between the mesocorticolimbic system and hypothalamic centers, the specific nodes of integration have remained elusive. Recent research, including our own, sheds light on the midline thalamus's overlooked role in this process. We propose that the midline thalamus integrates internal st...

NIH ProtIG Seminar by Joshua Coon: How Mass Spectrometry can Drive Biological Discovery – from Structure to Systems
In this presentation I will describe the use of a mass spectrometer to prepare samples for cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM). Briefly the protein-protein complexes are ionized, vaporized, and pass through a modified Orbitrap MS system where they either have their mass measured or are deposited onto a cryogenically cool TEM grid placed at the rear of system. After being deposited, the landed complexes are coated with a thin film of amorphous ice and then removed from the system and placed into a cryoEM for direct imaging. This method has the potential to resolve many outstanding problems with traditional cryoEM grid prepara...

Understanding the Biological Mechanisms Underlying the Health Consequences of Racism, Marginalization, and Discrimination
The marginalization of groups based on socially constructed categories of race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender, and other identities produces biological consequences that contribute to health disparities in a variety of diseases and conditions, including many under the purview of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK). For example, substantial racial and ethnic disparities exist in obesity, diabetes, and end-stage kidney disease. Racism, marginalization, and discrimination (RMD) is embedded into the structure of American society, which increases exposure to adverse social determ...
