Some fun at #ARVO2025!

Found the perfect #ARVO2025 ribbon! Awesome = Emily Nettesheim, Tiffany Yee, Ashley Rowe, Jake Aumeier, and Rama Mortada

It was an excellent talk!

Principal Investigator Kim Orth and researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have developed a preclinical model that recapitulates a rare infant-onset form of diabetes and suggests the condition stems from gradual damage to the pancreas through misregulation of a molecular pathway called

#ARVO2025 is going great so far! Learning a lot and enjoying SLC! Nice run this morning. Gizem did a great job yesterday. Emily (A0304) and Tian (A0421) are presenting today.

Drop by poster B0008 today to learn about genetic risk factors for retinal detachment! We found that variants in VSX2 were associated with an increased risk of retinal detachment in the UK Biobank. Shout out to my PIs Ben Frankfort and Ryan Dhindsa! ARVO #visionscience

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health have found that nearly 1 in 5 cases of #dementia could be related to #visionloss, suggesting that better vision care could lead to lower rates of dementia in old age: brnw.ch/21wSui9 #EyeHealth #Vision

Always sad to be at the last day of #ARVO2025, but now I have so many science ideas to consider! Looking forward to next year!
