One for the #EyePath #retina and #choroid peeps.

Here are some beautiful #drusen - low power photomicrograph stained with PAS, higher power with H&E.

I believe (and I am no expert!) the lumpy bits would correspond to hard drusen and the more confluent areas to soft drusen.

Dear Friends, please consider supporting the Jerry Lutty ARVO Travel Award to permanently endow a travel grant that will allow a junior retinal cell biologist attend the #ARVO meeting each year. Jerry was the best. Thanks for considering and RTing!

We have a new manuscript from the lab in Cell Reports, Distinctive Synaptic Structural Motifs Link Excitatory Retinal Interneurons To Diverse Postsynaptic Partner Types. Wan-Qing Yu, then co-authors Rachael Swanstrom, Crystal L. Sigulinsky, Richard M. Ahlquist, Sharm Knecht, Bryan W. Jones, David M. Berson, and Rachel O. Wong.

My New Year's wish to all:

May you find what you seek.

May you, your friends/family find solace and happiness in each others company and be sure to remember to photograph some of it.

This time is unique. Pay attention to the good and bad moments, for they will never come again

Do people like dog photos here?

Merry Christmas Eve from these two very bad dogs.

Finally a real Ca2+ ChR! Congrats to the entire team🥳
