Our lab had a great showing at the 12th International Fission Yeast Meeting #pombe. Graduate students Varmila gave a talk on her new fluorescent calcium reporters and Marium won one of the best poster awards on the surprising role of calmodulin in mitosis. @UToledo

Have a great time at #SBBq, 2025 Society of Brazilian Biochemistry and Molecular Biology meeting. It is such a beautiful place north of São Paulo. Even better is to meet all other the panelist in our session, including the host Dr. Anna Okorokova. @UToledo_NSM @UToledo

Sad to say goodbye to our summer exchange student Daphne! She brought so much energy and fun to our lab over the last six months, and lots of circumin for her study of #calcium spike in fission yeast @PombeSlack. Have a safe trip back to Brazil!

A honest day of work for a cell biologist is not to write paper or proposal. It is to install a new super heavy cell culture hood, with your graduate students @UToledo_NSM and your neighbors. Now we are ready to grow some tissue culture cells.
