Learn about our recent ME Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition, where ME graduate students have three minutes to explain their research in an easy-to-understand format. The winner goes on to compete at the College of Sci & Eng level competition on October 21! cse.umn.edu/me/news/gradua…

What a race..!! 🏎 Lewis or Max doesn’t matter, just one of the best F1 season of all time.

🚨🚨 New pre-print alert! 🚨🚨led by the Surinach-Rynes dream team Daniel Surinach Matt, fun collab with A. David Redish (RedishLab) in University of Minnesota Neuroscience: Strategy dependent mesoscale Ca2+ dynamics during spatial navigation biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/n

This work was led by two amazing grad students, Amey Joshi and Andrew Alegria, with critical contributions from Ben Auch and Jorge Blanco Mendana (not on Twitter). Many thanks to all our co-authors! (10/10)

I am really excited to share that our new pre-print on “A machine vision guided robot for fully automated embryonic microinjection” is out. Thanks to Andrew Alegria, all collaborators and Suhasa Daryl Gohl

🚨 New pre-print alert!🚨 Led by the brilliant, twitter-less post-doc James Hope. We built a 🤖 exoskeleton for 🐭🐁 so we can study their 🧠's as they go around navigating their world. An e.g., imaging 1000s of neurons in the cortex when mice walk an 8-maze. A 🧵

On the cover of the April issue of GENETICS: An automated microinjection of Drosophila embryos by a computer vision-guided robot. Alegria et al. present a machine vision guided generalized robot that automates the process of microinjection in fruit fly and zebrafish embryos. 🧵⬇️

Wow, congrats to the team, amazing accomplishments in this exciting paper!

A great collaboration between the UMGC Innovation Lab and mechanical engineering scientists in @CSEumn! This technology will save labs time and money while enabling large-scale genetic experiments that were not possible previously using manual techniques.

Exciting news! Our recent paper has been featured in a news article by UMN CSE. Dive into the feature to explore more about it. Genetics Society of America z.umn.edu/Microinjection…

“We anticipate that the robot can be used to carry out microinjection for genome-wide manipulation and cryopreservation at scale in a wide range of organisms.”👏 Check out this study on a microinjection robot: doi.org/10.1093/geneti… #atpbio #NSFfunded #NSFERC #cryopreservation

UMN's Andrew Alegria, Daryl Gohl, Amey Joshi, & Suhasa Kodandaramaiah are commercializing a new robot that uses #MI to automate a complicated microinjection process. Their startup, Objective Biotechnology, recently in the Spring 2024 Walleye Tank cse.umn.edu/college/news/a…

🚨 New pre-print!! We built a miniaturized device with an array of 4 micro-cameras that can each image multiple cortical areas in freely behaving mice. The mini-MCAM can image dozens of brain regions spread across >30 mm^2 of the cortical surface biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Just 3 finalists left in each MN Cup division. Congrats to the Launch Minnesota grant recipients that made the cut! Momease Solutions, Awesome People Leaders, SayKid, Mozrt™, Heart Failure Solutions, Objective Biotechnology and Camperoni. view.ecommunications2.umn.edu/?qs=a81fb05110…
