When you catch it, say hi for me! 😀 It's worth it by the way: the flight is brutal but it's really nice here in Australia.

At LAX, about to board flight to Sydney Australia on the way to #iser2023. Turns out it's a really long way away - who knew?!? It will be great when I get there.

Rookie! 😀😀
"We also conducted sensitivity analyses by changing pressure loads and tissue properties." Parametric analysis of ocular biomechanics. It's essentially this for me.

Congrats to @BabakNSafa for this. I have been doing ocular biomechanics for a long time and this one broke my brain for a while. Super cool study

Exciting new technology for IOP control that may help the many #glaucoma patients around the world - no surgery, no drugs. Fun to work on this with my colleague @MarkPrausnitz and talented folks at @GeorgiaTech. See ow.ly/HypZ50MfTq9

How great would it be if all 33 of these Black postdocs went on to achieve their career goals? Last night we discussed our plan for making that happen. Please support the @natblackpostdoc by RT'ing so our group can increase our visibility, grow, and further increase our impact.

#newinJBME @LejeuneLab @BuMechE showed that machine learning #ML can be used to predict the mechanical behavior of heterogeneous soft tissues and shared an #openaccess FEA dataset to enable other researchers to build on this work. #openscience doi.org/10.1115/1.4054898

1. Super-important @ARVOinfo workshop on Envisioning Equity in Eye Care. Did you know people who identify as Black are 5x more likely to be unilaterally blind from #glaucoma than Whites? This is a BIG DEAL. Thank you Paula Anne Newman-Casey for driving this home in your talk.

2. And to @DrKNwan and @EyeDrElam for making this symposium happen. This is so important for all of us who work in vision research and care about access to healthcare.
Yay Vicky! An amazing scientist, engineer and leader. Very well deserved, and huge congratulations!
