New preprint from the group on the evolution of retinal cell types. Check the summary by Dario @dariotommasini.bsky.social !

Vision Science makes the front page of NYT!! featuring work from @neurofishh.bsky.social and @denilsson.bsky.social with comments from Berkeley's own @karthikshekhar.bsky.social #visionscience www.nytimes.com/2026/02/23/s...

Honored to receive the Faculty Award for excellence in Postdoctoral mentoring from UC Berkeley, and share it with my friend and colleague Kranthi Mandadapu

A new study, led by Kushal (Berkeley), Nicole&Victoria (UCSF) in full collaboration with @karthikshekhar.bsky.social, "Molecular and spatial analysis of ganglion cells on retinal flatmounts identifies perivascular neurons resilient to glaucoma" sciencedirect.com/science/arti... #retina #MERFISH

My first Bluesky post is to announce a Tenure-Track Faculty Search at the Jules Stein Eye Institute of UCLA. We are considering applications at the Assistant and Associate professor levels. Apply here: recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF10092. DM or email me with any questions. Please distribute!

This was a fun project led by the hugely talented postdoc Rachana Somaiya and graduate student Matthew Po together in collaboration with @mfeller.bsky.social !

New preprint! A wonderful collaboration of our @FellerMarla lab with Matthew Po, and @shekharlab. Here, we dive into the impact of spontaneous activity on the transcriptome of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), the sole output neurons of the retina. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

As my first post here, I am really excited to share a new manuscript with @ralitsamadsen.bsky.social on this platform. We looked how non-equilibrium thermodynamics helps ligand discrimination in signaling networks: t.co/ZA6NteUmaS

Beautiful work. Congrats @michelcayouette.bsky.social and team!
