Candie Paulsen's biochemistry research group at Yale consisting of unique individuals unified in our use of diverse approaches to study pain signaling. https://bsky.app/profile/paulsenlab.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/paulsenlab.bsky.social/post/3m2a7nyybfs2t🧠Pain sensors need to switch on fast—and off just as quickly. In our new tour de force Nat Comms paper - led by the first Paulsen lab grad student - we show that calmodulin plays a key role in shutting down the TRPA1 pain receptor - a finding that could guide new pain therapies. 📰 rdcu.be/eJcMK https://rdcu.be/eJcMK02 Oct 2025 18:46 +0000at://did:plc:tht6vmmyf2q24evk34fhty4f/app.bsky.feed.post/3m2a7nyybfs2thttps://bsky.app/profile/paulsenlab.bsky.social/post/3liwos5gsps2nWe had a great time at BPS 2025– learned a lot and made great connections. Congrats to Paulsen Lab grad student Isabel Romov for winning a Student Research Achievement Award! We celebrated at Disneyland. ‘Til next year!24 Feb 2025 15:42 +0000at://did:plc:tht6vmmyf2q24evk34fhty4f/app.bsky.feed.post/3liwos5gsps2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/paulsenlab.bsky.social/post/3ld7o2gyjne25We are delighted to share the next story from the Paulsen lab! In a team effort led by Candie's first Yale grad student, Justin Sanders, we've uncovered a critical role for calmodulin in the TRPA1 pain receptor's calcium regulation.
