We see light with our corneas ⚡️ We found that corneal epithelium is intrinsically photosensitive due to OPN5 (neuropsin) which drives calcium signaling & cytokine release (to protect us from snow blindness?) Discovery by Luka Lapajne and Monika Lakk

Announcing the first annual Visual Neuroscience summer course, Woods Hole, MA, Aug 1-16, 2025. Come for an eye-opening, hands-on experience with inspiring faculty and students from around the world. Please help spread the word!
Thrilled to share the first work from my lab @MoranEyeCenter. It was fun writing the paper, tying findings in genetics with cell type specific degeneration in glaucoma. Many exciting research ideas in this new area for my lab.

Thank you,@CellCellPress, for saving a precious CellBio Cover for a DevNeuro study😉 Kenichi Toma led the work with colleagues at @UCSFNSGrad @UCSF @Stanford @genentech #Retinalganglioncell #angiogenesis #ophthalmology—more threads to follow soon.
As part of the #50YearsofCell, our 2nd focus issue on Cell Biology is out!
This issue expands upon our first anniversary focus issue on cell biology by turning the spotlight toward areas where cell biology is forging ahead, including fresh looks at mitochondria and the concept of cell state
In addition, it features research articles on the unequal contribution of the first two blastomeres to the future body and the 3D reconstruction of a gastrulating human embryo, as well as how the circadian infiltration and function of T cells dictates immunotherapy efficacy.

Many types of retinal neurons are arranged in strikingly regular patterns known as mosaics. The term "mosaic" means that neurons of a given type are spaced evenly across the retinal surface. How do mosaics form during development?
