I'm heading to #SfN23! 🧠 co-chairing and speaking on Tuesday in the minisymposium MIN20 "Color processing in the early visual system from across animal taxa" 9:30-12 in WCC145 🌈 🧠 recruiting at all levels for my lab: vlasitslab.org Reach out if your interested!

#CaseyEyeInstitute director Dr. Andreas Lauer discusses his thoughts, hopes and expectations for gene therapy and how to treat inherited retinal disease during an interview with Medspoke during AAO. medspoke.co/channel_playli…

The Chirco Lab is hiring! We are looking for a postdoc for an NIH-funded project studying inherited retinal diseases using cell and retinal organoid models. postdoctoral-ohsu.icims.com/jobs/26241/pos…

Retinal neurons establish mosaic patterning by excluding homotypic somata from their dendritic territory biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_neursci

Happy our paper on corollary discharge in the #zebrafish visual system is out! Locomotion modulates visual processing via synchronous synaptic inhibition. Great work Ahsan, Katharina, Steffy and Chintan! Katharina Lischka Chintan Trivedi Faculty of Biology - University of Freiburg Nature Communications rdcu.be/drPzm

Beautiful new paper: methods for getting stem-cell derived retinal ganglion cells to integrate into the retina (mouse). Cells were capable of migrating & surviving. #NEIfunded Baranov Lab Levi Todd Mass Eye and Ear Harvard Ophthalmology PNASNews paper: bit.ly/3GzqZNP

Extremely honor to be one of recipients! I am fortune to work with so much great people and doing cool science together

Congratulations to Dr. Diana Lozano whot received the Genentech Career Development Award for Underrepresented Minority (URM) Emerging Vision Scientists! So well deserved and we are very proud at Casey! 💪

Congratulations to Joe Leffler on an amazing platform presentation today at detailing his work with creating an explant model for stem cell derived retinal ganglion cell integration using Meyer Lab cells! Thanks to @nina_luong for the photo!

Congratulations to [email protected] on an awesome presentation at FASEB illustrating midget RGCs express OPN4 and are intrinsically photosensitive!

Congratulations to @nina_luong on her Data Blitz talk and poster presentation at FASEB on MafB RGCs with @kevinmawright!

nature.com/articles/s4146… I am excited to announce our work on how myelin loss culminates in neurodegeneration has been published at Nature Communications. While I have previously covered our findings as a preprint in more detail below, our key findings are:

snowmedical.org.au/vision-acceler… Today marks the official beginning of the Snow Vision Accelerator, a ten year investment by the SMRF that will enable us to protect the optic nerve in glaucoma. A huge thank you to SMRF and the Snow Family. #SVA #SMRF #USYD #glaucoma #opticnerve #MIPS
