This was an amazing group effort with @AOIPLab Joe Carroll and Dana Merriman on assessing integration of hIPSC retinal neurons in normal and damaged 13LGS retinas. A huge thanks to the U24 mechanism by @NatEyeInstitute for supporting our work!

Congratulations to our @LabLamba postdoc @KandoiSangeetha on receiving the @_BrightFocus postdoctoral felowship on Macular Degeneration Research for her project on the hibernating cone-dominant 13-lined ground squirrel as a model for macular degeneration.

Amazing work Levi and group!! Really cool looking RGCs. Wonder if they survive a long time if they do not find their targets.

I really need to stop slide typing on my phone.... those typos are insane😂

It would be great to you could share the file. Also, there is a NIH repository for 3d prints to share. 3dprint.nih.gov/ lots of useful on it.
We have another manuscript up based on some amazing pain-staking work over a few years by @small_crane in the lab. Her final hurrah from the lab prior to embarking on her grad school experience. So proud of her! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Replying to @LatorreLab
So sorry to hear that Anna. I hope you recover quickly. Best Wishes!
We still have open positions in the @LabLamba for postdocs interested in iPSC-based disease modeling. Anyone interested in growing mini human retinas for developmental or disease modeling please DM me or email me at [email protected]
