Achal Gowda

I’m originally from Peshtigo, WI. I just graduated in May from UW-Madison with a B.S in Biology. I joined the Alvarado lab in October 2023. My main focus is investigating the role of ryanodine receptor phosphorylation in the adrenergic response. I do this by recording transient calcium release in isolated cardiomyocytes from knock-in mouse models. I’m looking forward to continuing my work and learning new techniques during the CVRC Summer Research Fellowship.
