Congratulations to Wen on her first-author paper being accepted in Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters! She developed a photocaged GPR52 agonist that stays inert until light releases the active ligand, enabling precise temporal control over receptor activation in cells.
Great collaboration with Dr. Bichu Cheng lab.

Exciting news! Our first GPCR deorphanization project is a big success!
Congratulations to Dr. Ying Han on her first-author paper being accepted by Science Advances! The study identifies the GPR88/C1ql1/Bai3 complex and reveals its essential function in synaptic regulation and associative learning. A great milestone for the lab and hopefully for the community!
