2020 Work in the Journal of General Physiology recompensed by the Cranefield award

The young investigator Pauf F. Cranefield award goes to Federico Trigo for his 2020 J Gen Physiol paper. Fede, currently with the Instituto de Investigaciones Biológicas Clemente Estable (IIBCE) in Montevideo, Uruguay, used Ca2+ uncaging and patch-clamp electrophysiology to show that the prior history of Ca2+ elevation affects release probability of vesicles that fuse with high or low latency, a phenomenon of critical importance for understanding the effects of conditioning stimulation. We congratulate Fede and all co-workers to this success!
