😮 ohhh.

Out now in Current Biology, our new paper identifies an olfactory receptor that mediates male attraction to females, but enforces avoidance of parental care. A thread that leads to an unexpected twist in regulation of social behavior! cell.com/current-biolog…

Here’s a chance to see what our lab is up to and how funding #NEI is important for all of us

In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, we present The Atlas of Inspiring Hispanic/Latinx Scientists. This resource showcases the scientific excellence of nearly 400 outstanding scientists. #LatinxAtlas #HispanicHeritageMonth fredhutch.org/en/about/about…

Last night's Congressional Emerging Vision Scientists Poster Session was a great success! Our poster session offers a unique platform for scientists to present their work, fostering critical discussions on the future of vision research and its impact on public health.

#GroundSquirrel develop “reversible #cataracts” during #hibernation, with their lenses quickly clearing upon waking. Using GS-#iPSC-derived lens epithelial cells, we explored the molecular mechanism behind this, pointing to a potential treatment target. jci.org/articles/view/…

Reflection of ‘NAEVR’- An effort by Maryland’s ‘Emerging Vision Scientists’ on the Capitol Hill, organized & supported by National Alliance for Eye & Vision Research/NAEVR RPB at the 10th annual meeting on Sep 16-17, 2024 to educate, advocate & raise the awareness of vision research for curing eye diseases!

This so cool. Reversible cataracts in hibernating squirrels!

Yes, our lab does study eye development in zebrafish, why do you ask?

One weird thing about a career in academic science is the versatility of skills & problem you face, In an average day you may: fix an incubator, troubleshoot a biochemistry experiment, operate a business accounting software, design a microscopy course, be a scientific illustrator

Been watching too much British BakeOff. These are choux, filled with lemon curd and topped with poppy-seed craquelin. #bakeoff

Did I have leftover lemon curd? Yes. Did I watch #bakeoff again? Maybe… #lemonbar

This has Katie kindt ‘s lab stamp all over it.

👀 this really is a life-changing course and I’m so proud to be part of it. And yes, TA from my lab is indeed amazing.
