Its really sad he left us early. A real inspiration for those who want to *see* the immune system at work.

What if you got to work with some of your best friends on a science project? I can't publish how fun this was, but I can show you the data (🧵)! Last week, we posted our second neutrophil swarming paper to bioRxiv and I wanted to post my favorite videos here~ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Zara was a great inspiration and mentor... Its really sad the excellent often leave us too soon... You will be missed Zara 💕

I worry that not enough of a big deal is being made about how long-term the devastation of these budget cuts to our scientific and health agencies will be, beyond the absolute ruin they will cause in the acute period.

Thanks @c0nc0rdance.bsky.social for this thread :) Wanted to amplify this part because its been on my mind a *lot* lately. Public researchers work tirelessly (for limited pay) to create information for *everyone's* benefit. Attacking the NIH, NSF and other public funders hurts *all* of us...

Doing my best to make sure this page is about cool microscopy and not my current postdoc search status... 😓

Just swam over to Bluesky and decided to dip my fin in the water. I am a Postdoc in the Weinstein lab and currently on the faculty job market. I developed an injury system to study cutaneous wound healing in adult zebrafish. Check out my movie showing neutrophil recruitment after injury.

Just because its fun~ This is one of my favorite videos I've taken in my PhD! Here is 60x imaging of neutrophils swarming to attack yeast targets in blue :)
