- Atypical Structure and Function of Typical Chemokine Receptors
Retreat 2023 About Program Registration Logo Contest Committee Sponsors GPCR Retreat Program < Back to schedule Atypical Structure and Function of Typical Chemokine Receptors Date & Time Saturday, November 4th / 11:00 AM Abstract Coming Soon About Amy Ramsey "One of the principal efforts of our laboratory is to understand the physiological consequences of NMDA receptor deficiency using genetic mouse models. The NMDA receptor is a subtype of glutamate neurotransmitter receptor that regulates the formation and maintenance of synaptic connections between neurons. It plays an important role in the way that neurons wire together and change the strength of synaptic connections with experience. Our laboratory is interested in the role of NMDA receptors not only on neurons, but also on other cells of the brain such as astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and endothelial cells. NMDA receptors are implicated in a number of brain disorders including schizophrenia, autism, and epilepsy. Our laboratory has a long-standing interest in the way that NMDA receptors contribute to the symptoms of schizophrenia. Recently, we have focused our efforts on GRIN disorder. This is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by de novo mutations in the GRIN genes that encode NMDA receptors. Although symptoms of GRIN disorder appear very early in childhood, it can take years to reach the right diagnosis through genetic tests. Children with GRIN disorder experience developmental delays, intellectual impairment, visual impairments, and difficulties with daily tasks like talking and walking, feeding and toileting. Many children experience seizures that can be life-threatening. Our laboratory is working to help patients by developing genetically-modified mice that have disease-causing variants in their Grin1 gene. These mice can then be used to test dietary regimens, drugs, and adenoviral gene therapies for their ability to improve specific symptoms. The Ramsey lab uses a combination of biochemical and behavioural approaches to understand the many roles of NMDA receptors and to find treatments for debilitating brain disorders."

- When to Walk, When to Run: Lessons from the GPCR Trenches with Dr. Ben Clements | Dr. GPCR Ecosystem
GPCR scientist Ben Clements shares how positive allosteric modulators could transform opioid therapy by boosting efficacy and reducing side effects. << Back to podcast list Strategic Partner(s) When to Walk, When to Run: Lessons from the GPCR Trenches with Dr. Ben Clements 1. The Power of Inclusion in the GPCR Field This episode kicks off with a celebration of early-career scientists. Host Dr. Yamina Berchiche emphasizes the importance of diverse voices in the GPCR community: “It’s been a very difficult path to get more early-career scientists on the podcast. But it’s important to make your voice heard.” Benjamin Clements , a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan, joins the conversation as a rising voice in GPCR pharmacology. His journey highlights the transition from general drug development to a deep dive into G protein-coupled receptors. 2. From Aspirations to Application: Ben’s Path into Science Ben shares his winding yet deliberate entry into science. Initially driven by a general passion for biology and a childhood dream of being an astronaut, he began with intestinal choline transport research at UNC. The realization that basic science could impact real patients was transformative. “It’s not just raw science — this can help someone at the end of the day.” – Ben Clements His pivot into neuroscience and pharmacology during grad school at the University of Minnesota laid the groundwork for his current work in GPCR pharmacology. 3. GPCRs and the Opioid Crisis: A New Pharmacological Frontier Now at the University of Michigan, Ben focuses on positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) targeting opioid receptors. The goal: maximize analgesia while minimizing side effects . “We’re enhancing the powerful pain-relieving effects of opioids while limiting respiratory depression, constipation, and abuse liability.” He is particularly excited by the novel application of PAMs in chronic and neuropathic pain models , including the neuroma model , which is typically opioid-insensitive. 4. Allosteric Modulation: The New Frontier of GPCR Drug Discovery Ben reflects on the emerging potential of allosteric modulation in GPCRs — a field that has lagged behind ion channels in clinical applications. “Allosteric modulation in GPCRs is so novel and so exciting. There’s so much availability, so much we don’t know yet.” By working with distinct chemical scaffolds like thiazolidines and xanthinediones, Ben is helping define how structurally different PAMs may act on similar receptor sites. 5. Scientific Rigor: The Value of ‘Old School’ Pharmacology Despite the availability of modern tools, Ben stresses the enduring value of classical methods like GTPγS assays , radioligand binding , and basic PK/PD models . “It doesn’t matter how many cool, fun tools you have. If you don’t understand the math that underlies an allosteric modulator, you won’t understand what’s happening.” This mindset keeps his science grounded, reproducible, and rooted in fundamentals. 6. Mentorship, Team Culture, and the Joy of Science Science is serious work, but Ben believes fun and collaboration fuel great outcomes. At Michigan, his lab balances rigor with light-hearted engagement — like daily squirrel trivia on their whiteboard. “Science is fun. We produce great data, but we also joke around. That’s how we work best.” Strong mentorship, open communication, and peer learning — especially from undergraduate trainees — shape his development as both a scientist and future educator. 7. Translating Discovery into Therapy: Bench to Bedside Vision Ben’s work seeks to merge in vitro mechanistic data with in vivo efficacy , guiding medicinal chemists toward creating druggable PAMs . “The goal is to smash all the amazing biology together and make a drug.” Using site-directed mutagenesis and pharmacological synergy assays , his team aims to understand how and where these compounds interact with the receptor, paving the way for structure-based drug design . 8. Structural Biology Roadblocks: The Cryo-EM Challenge One bottleneck in Ben’s work is visualizing binding sites of PAMs via cryo-EM , due to low compound potency and membrane-embedded binding pockets. “Our compounds don’t bind well enough to be seen clearly. That’s a real challenge with allosterics.” Still, by collaborating with structural biology teams and combining cryo-EM with NMR , his lab is narrowing down potential binding regions. 9. Lessons in Confidence, Collaboration, and Aha Moments From asserting himself as an undergrad to mastering unique techniques in grad school, Ben has accumulated key “aha” moments that shaped his confidence: Standing up to big names when safety was compromised. Realizing his technical skills were indispensable to the team. Discovering breakthrough results in neuroma pain models via a spontaneous collaboration. “We found something incredible — a tenfold shift in the methadone dose-response with our PAM.” 10. Advice for Junior Scientists: Read, Rest, Run Ben closes with wisdom for early-career researchers: “Academia is about knowing when to walk and when to run.” – Advice from Kelsey Flepsen He advocates: Reading one paper a day. Taking care of yourself when possible. Pushing hard when deadlines or breakthroughs demand it. “Your brain’s not a machine. Let it rest. That’s when the best ideas come — in the shower or on a walk.” Summary made with AI ________ Key Takeaway Episode 166 with Ben Clements is a deep dive into the pharmacological potential of GPCRs , the power of mentorship, and the mindset required to thrive in science. With clarity, curiosity, and a collaborative spirit, Ben reminds us that impactful science isn’t just about technology — it’s about people, persistence, and timing. “Science is all about knowing when to walk and knowing when to run.” Keyword Cloud GPCR research community , Dr. GPCR ecosystem , GPCR online course , GPCR scientist network , GPCR drug discovery , GPCR training program , G protein-coupled receptors , GPCR podcast , GPCR webinar series , GPCR data platform Summary created by AI About Ben Clements Dr. Ben M Clements is a behavioral pharmacologist who uses in vitro and in vivo models to discover and characterize novel treatments for chronic pain and opioid use disorder.

Retreat 2023 About Program Registration Logo Contest Committee Sponsors GPCR Retreat Program < Back to schedule Dopamine-Mediated Motor Recovery after Ischemic Stroke Date & Time Friday, November 3rd / 8:30 AM Abstract Coming Soon About Mario Tiberi "I did my graduate research on the regulation of axonal transport by tricyclic antidepressants (M.Sc.) and molecular pharmacology of opioid receptors (Ph.D.) in the Department of Pharmacology at the Université de Montréal under the mentorship of Dr. Pierre-André Lavoie and Dr. Jacques Magnan, respectively. I then pursued my postdoctoral training at Duke University in the laboratory of Dr. Marc Caron, where I cloned the dopamine D5 receptor gene and investigated the regulation of dopaminergic and adrenergic receptors. My addiction for dopamine led me to the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (then the Moses and Rose Loeb Research Institute) to develop my independent research program. The Tiberi Lab pursues the study of the molecular, structural, pharmacological and signaling features of dopamine (DA) receptors. We are also currently developing the translational component of our research to capitalize on the druggability potential of GPCRs. More specifically, we investigate the druggability potential of new signaling partners we identified that drive the formation of different DA receptor complexes. We hope our research will aid in the development of new therapeutic interventions for the alleviation of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson’s Disease and improvement of post-stroke recovery."

After a doctoral training at the Pierre and Marie Curie University in Paris and a short internship at Genentech Inc. in South San Francisco, he joined the CNRS as a Research Fellow in 1987 in the INSERM Laboratory directed by Jean-Charles Schwartz in Paris, where he cloned and characterized dopamine D2 and D3 receptor subtypes. From 91 to 94, he was an assistant professor at Duke University in North Carolina, working with Marc Caron on the characterization of several neurotransmitter transporters and kinases and establishing the first knock- out for these genes. In 1999, back in France, Dr. Giros created the INSERM/CNRS laboratory on the "Neurobiology of Psychiatric Disorders", at the University of Paris-Sorbonne. Since 2008, he arrived at McGill University with a Canada Research Chair. At McGill, his laboratory has two main axes of research: 1) Studying interindividual vulnerability to chronic stress and depression and; 2) Understand the role of phenotypically defined subpopulations of striatal neurons in motor and cognitive functions."
