Postdoc @ Emory Univ. The Deans lab is recruiting postdocs to work on inner ear development, hair cells and innervation. We use mouse genetics, imaging, and dev bio to understand how the machinery for hearing + balance is built. Email a CV and brief statement of interests. 🔁 Boosts appreciated

Macclesfield? Really?

Let me introduce you to Dr. Jennie Nelson who just defended her PhD in the UofUtah Neuroscience program.

SAVE THE DATE! Stoked to organize the 2026 Santa Cruz Developmental Biology Meeting with @rashmi-priya.bsky.social, @lowelab.bsky.social, and Shelbi Russell. Come learn about Biomedicine, Biomechanics, and the Biosphere, August 24-28, 2026. Registration dates, etc., coming soon! Please RT

“Strengthened by the launch of the Neuroscience and Neurotechnology Ph.D. program, Georgia Tech takes another big step forward as a top-tier destination for neuroscience,” says Tim Cope. Meet the inaugural cohort: neuro.gatech.edu/georgia-tech...

To have this paper appear the same day that RFK Jr is canceling all mRNA vaccine funding is further indication that irony is not dead, even though we might all be soon.

Our lab is looking to recruit a new postdoc to join our team. You can visit us at leritlab.org to learn more and submit applications here: faculty-emory.icims.com/jobs/149999/... (or scan the QR in the ad below!) Review will commence in early August.

Another congratulations to Shubham Kale whose paper about cochlear development and innervation just came out in Developmental Biology. See the details in person here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

It wasn’t for Crystal Palace but I still saw Wilfried Zaha score at the Benz

BWJoneslab Moving To The University of Pittsburgh I can now officially reveal that we are moving the BWJoneslab from the University of Utah, Moran Eye Center to the University of Pittsburgh, Department of Ophthalmology, effective August 1st, 2025. bryanwjones.com/2025/06/bwjo...

Big congratulations to new Dr Shubham Kale PhD who successfully defends his dissertation on Friday. See is efforts here: nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...

I really hate it when a vendor or sales rep asks to know my budget before giving us a quote. My budget is as low as possible - haven’t you read anything about the NIH lately?

Now that my lab has moved to Emory I want you to join us in Atlanta. We have an NIH-funded postdoc position available to study Planar Cell Polarity (PCP) signaling using vestibular hair cells of the mouse as a model. Please repost and/or DM for details

We have to do a better job writing the Project Narrative and Project Summary sections of our grants. Now more than ever these need to be clear and compelling - and written for the general public. I’m afraid these are the only sections RFK jr and friends might read when judging your worth. 😐

This might reveal a problem of mine - but doesn’t it look like he is wearing his semi-circular canals on the outside?

Our contribution to #FluorescenceFriday is a progress report. The scope made it to Emory and was reassembled with only one minor catastrophe. We’re calling it a win.

Frivolous sort-of-science question: What do you call male and female mice? Bucks and Does? Sires and Dams? Johns and Janes?

Happy #FluorescenceFriday. I captured this one myself.

I spoke to our moving company about packing the lab and their recommendation was bubble wrap. Lots of bubble wrap.

For our first #FluorescenceFriday post I’m sharing a lab favorite. Photo credit to Ellie Goodrich.

Here's a great opportunity for undergrads to apply for a summer internship at the NIH! Applications are due Jan. 8th. Follow link for more details and to apply: www.nibib.nih.gov/labs-at-nibi...
