Our #MidweekMovie show mpeg1+ Langerhans cells engulfing debris during axon degeneration. Eric Peterman Jeff Rasmussen UW Biology, et al. present a new model for studying axon degeneration with high spatiotemporal resolution. 📖DMM Journal: journals.biologists.com/dmm/article/16…

We are hiring a lab technician to join our lab Clemson University Biological Sciences! This tech will work on ongoing projects on craniofacial #evodevo using #cichlid fishes and #zebrafish. To apply by May 10: tinyurl.com/PowderTech. Email or DM me for more details. Please share.

We're looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join our group in UW Seattle. We're funded to work on signaling and synthetic biology of plant cell surface receptors 🧬🌱🐛 Details attached -- please RT!

Congrats to Eric Peterman on getting the cover of the current issue of DMM Journal. This is also the first lab cover image! Link to his paper here: doi.org/10.1242/dmm.04…

Happy #MostReadMonday! Let's celebrate our newest blockbuster from Jeff Rasmussen &team that shows axon engulfment in injured #zebrafish skin: 📰journals.biologists.com/dmm/article/16…

Langerhans #cells – a type of #immune cell – clear debris from damaged #nerve cells in injured #skin. #zebrafish Video & research by Eric Peterman et al Jeff Rasmussen lab UW Biology in DMM Journal The Company of Biologists. More on bpod.mrc.ac.uk/archive/2023/6… with MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS)

I am honored to have been selected as a 2023 Searle Scholar! On a related note, we are looking to recruit a postdoc and/or grad student. If you're interested in studying cell type evolution in annual killifish, please email me (contact information at abitua.org).

Latest preprint from the lab! Our work implicates ROCK signaling as a key modulator of Langerhans cell morphology, dynamics, and plasticity in response to various types of skin damage. Check out Eric Peterman’s movie of Lifeact-GFP in a Langerhans cell 👇biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Somatosensory axons in juvenile zebrafish skin #FluorescenceFriday

Never underestimate the mood-elevating power of a totally unexpected, unsolicited word of sincere praise for someone who might need it than they even realize. It could be a paper you read, a talk you attended, a podcast you listened to. Write a short note. Make their day.

returned to some fun imaging while i awaited reviewer comments. time-lapse imaging of immune cell surveillance, microtubules in magenta, cytosolic fluorescent protein in cyan #microscopymonday #microtubulemonday

Go ahead and vote for the gorgeous DMM Journal cover image of #zebrafish epidermal nerves and immune cells from Eric Peterman 👇👀

In the mood to be amazed? Here's the immune cell response to a scratch in the zebrafish epidermis. bit.ly/3Rr11SL Photo Cred: Dr. Eric Peterman

Thanks for the amazing visit to Rice University Harini Iyer Looking forward to all the great things to come from your lab!

Many thanks to the LEO Foundation (LEO Foundation - LEO Fondet) for supporting our work on the cell biology of skin immune cells!

🚨.Jeff Rasmussen preprint!🚨 Super happy to post this undergraduate-led study on calcium dynamics in zebrafish skin macrophages! Pearl is applying for graduate schools this cycle and they should be fighting tooth and nail to recruit her. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

imaging microtubule plus-ends in a zebrafish skin macrophage. always a treat to make the construct, inject, and go through the waiting period until i can image the adults and have it turn out like this! #microscopymonday #microtubulemonday #macrophagemonday

Latest paper from the lab in which we examine calcium dynamics in tissue-resident macrophages of the skin is now online at MBoC American Society for Cell Biology ... Congratulations to Pearl (1st first-author paper) and Eric Peterman (1st senior-author paper)!

🚨Please share: We are looking for a postdoctoral fellow to join our group to study the mechanisms of Merkel cell regeneration and sensory perception. Check out the job announcement👇
