The new Disney Pixar movie Elio has the main character sporting an eye patch. This seems like a good time to spread the word about amblyopia, the treatment for it, and #NIHfunded research on brain-based causes of vision loss. brnw.ch/21wU0DC

Great to talk to representatives, senators, and staffers about the importance of NIH and NSF funding as part of virtual #ASCBHillDay with @ASCBiology. Federal grant $$ supports cutting edge research, trains the next generation of scientists, and directly supports Indiana economy.

Our paper "Reimagining bioRxiv and preprint servers as platforms for academic learning" is now published @JCellBiol. Should @biorxivpreprint manuscripts even if @NIH funded be posted in pubmed? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/cms/… Huge THANKS @J_I_Benjamin @CWanjallaMDPhD @phdgprotein86!
