Excited to see what you find. Very interesting/ unexpected. I really got the impression that the multi-year funding guidelines were a new tactic to disburse this year’s appropriation but this suggests something else may be going on?
This should have 30,000 likes 👍👍👍

Happy #fluorescencefriday everyone!
Je te souhaite la même! Bonne année et merci pour les bonnes pensées, j'ai l'impression que nous en avons besoin
We’re down the road at Hopkins, would love to chat sometime once you’re in town! Visual neuroscience / regeneration in zebrafish (and killifish soon!)
Parfait merci j’y vais (un jour)
Tu as pris cet photo? Jaloux c’est ou?

Hello World!
I’m Jay. I saw my first transgenic zebrafish >10 years ago and never looked back. Dissertation using tg fish to study bad cholesterol in the Farber lab (#lipoglo) and current postdoc in the Mumm lab studying regeneration of retinal ganglion cells / optic nerve.
I’m early career (postdoc in the Mumm Lab) - zebrafish all the way!
I’m a (budding) vision scientist too! Thanks for the starter pack!
Totally deserves the #1 spot. Misty forest vibes
