Can’t wait! Today’s the day for our inaugural Indiana Stem Cell Research Symposium! So much great research to learn about today! #IUStemCell @IUStark_Neuro
👀 Sally Temple will present the keynote at the @IUStemCell Inaugural Symposium today! Looking forward to an exciting program capped by her talk "Using Human Brain Organoids to Explore the Progression of Neurodegenerative Disease." Program | zurl.co/hXO7

Join us @IUStemCell TOMORROW for a #LunchandLearn with our colleagues @bitbio to learn about their catalog of #ioCells - opti-ox powered human iPSC-derived microglia, astrocytes, neurons, oligodendrocytes, and more! #IUStemCell @NeurosciStark @IUMedSchool

I’d love to discuss how we can use iPSC-derived microglia models in Alzheimer’s research with you! Check out my poster at spot 84 now until 4:15, and let’s chat! #AAIC2024

New paper by @harkinjade in the @MeyerLab developing enhanced methods to generate consistent and reproducible "mini-retinas" - retinal organoids derived from human pluripotent stem cells! @NeurosciStark pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.23… #IUStemCell
So excited to share my first first author manuscript from my PhD just published in @PNASNews. Check out how we have standardized the differentiation of retinal organoids to achieve reproducible organoids at 100% efficiency. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.23…

For the love of God people just do some experiments, enough with the single cell seq atlases – at Philadelphia, PA

Excited to have successfully defended my PhD thesis yesterday! Truly thankful for my mentor @MeyerLab as I would not have got to this point without your support! Thank you to everyone in the lab for the celebration you all put together afterwards and for the amazing gifts!

Transitioning from initial struggles with critical thinking in my early PhD years to contributing a unique and insightful scientific comment, I appreciate the guidance from @MeyerLab for laying the groundwork of my evolving scientific journey.
