Today, along with 2,000 other NIH employees, I had to clear out my office 😭
It was truly the honor of my life to work with such incredibly passionate people focused on improving human health.
I am pleased to share that myself, Mark Greiner (University of Iowa) and Sara Thomasy (UC Davis) have been awarded a new National Institutes of Health (National Eye Institute) R01 grant for $2.85 million focused on "Modulating Ferroptosis in Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy".
Happy, happy, joy, joy!!! I can’t wait to develop this🐒 model of autosomal dominant optic atrophy to advance therapies for optic neuropathies! Kudos to the MRLT lab esp. @bcleonard for all their time & effort! After 3 NDs (including this 1st submission), it feels great!
Best Thanksgiving gift ever! A NOA for a full budget for our Comparative Medicine T32 to support DVMs getting their PhD. So excited to expand the program to support 6 trainees. vetmed.ucdavis.edu/research/cmstp 🤩
We are changing our lab hours for the safety of our trainees so that now one is there past dark. Other @ucdavis PIs, consider doing the same. @ucdavisvetmed@GGIPstudents
This is Karim Abou-Najim. He is the victim in the deadly stabbing at Sycamore Park in Davis. Family friends tell us he was riding his bike home from his award ceremony for his research work. The 20-year-old was graduating in just 10 days from UC Davis. @CBSSacramento
