夫妇相随－－记华裔美国科学院院士伉俪詹裕农和叶公杼 有这样一对夫妻，他们来自同一所大学，毕业后同时被美国加州理工学院录取，就读期间同时从物理系转到了生物系，并且在从助理教授，到副教授，再到教授的过程当中，他们也是巧合地同一年晋升，1984年，他们又一次同时被霍德华休斯医学院（HHMI）聘为研究员。他们就是来自旧金山加州大学的詹裕农(Yuh-Nung　Jan) 叶公杼(Lily　Yeh　Jan)夫妻。这一个又一个巧合好似浑然天成，但是1996他们同时当选为美国科学院院士却是来自妻子的坚持――1995年妻子叶公杼被评为美国科学院院士，但是因为丈夫未获提名而婉言拒绝了这一殊荣，直到次年詹裕农也获提名，这样又促成了他们 “巧合”的同时成为美国科学院院士。

詹裕农叶公杼俩夫妇主要的研究方向是钾离子通道和果蝇神经发育，1986年他们在世界上首次克隆出了一种钾离子通道Shaker基因，这一工作与2003年的诺贝尔化学奖主题吻合，许多科学家表示获奖名单中没有他们的名字真是种遗憾。虽然未获得诺贝尔奖，但是詹裕农和叶公杼的工作得到了许多人的肯定，并且从他们实验室中也走出了多位华人科学家，其中包括获得Science杂志“青年科学家奖”的时松海，哥伦比亚大学杨建，麻省理工学院的沈华智和中国科学院上海交叉学科研究中心主任饶毅等等。 在各大顶级期刊，比如Cell，Science，Nature，Neuron等杂志上，詹裕农和叶公杼发表了许多文章，今年就有8篇。10月7日新一期Cell杂志题为“Common Molecular Pathways Mediate Long-Term Potentiation of Synaptic Excitation and Slow Synaptic Inhibition”的文章是他们的研究新成果。这篇文章从神经突触入手，研究发现CA1锥形神经元信号通路也可以引起慢抑制性突触后电位（slow inhibitory postsynaptic current ，sIPSC）的长时程增益作用（long-term potentiation，LTP）。 同时，他们夫妇二人培养了至少40名教授，分布于全美各大大学，同时在他们实验室中也出现一大批顶尖的科学新苗子，如时松海等。 最新Cell原文：Common Molecular Pathways Mediate Long-Term Potentiation of Synaptic Excitation and Slow Synaptic Inhibition Cindy Shen Huang,1,2,5 Song-Hai Shi,1,5 Jernej Ule,4 Matteo Ruggiu,4 Laura A.
