We are all just getting back to ATL but it was a great #ARVO2024 in Seattle. So happy to see Nina Sara and Gabriela present there work and catch up with so many colleagues and collaborators. It was an incredibly engaging week!
I miss being at ARVO to see myself the work on ICP from UAB and USF, and to chat with Mark, Jason, Babak and Chris. Thank you for posting these photos!

I'm happy to share that our image won second place in the ARVO Scientific Image contest! This image of the cleared lamina cribrosa will be displayed on promotional material for the upcoming ARVO meeting, the largest annual gathering of eye and vision researchers in the world.
FYI: Po-Yi is looking for a post-doc position in Boston. If you have a position, you should talk with him. He does amazing things with a microscope and image processing. His latest paper was just accepted to Acta Biomaterialia.

Oh you like Hamas? Siding with Hamas isn’t easy when you know what they actually stand for. Well done: FactsForPeace on IG
Never thought of it this way, but I think that this is how some of the work I have enjoyed most happened.
