If you have primary tissue culture and/or organoid experience, you may be a perfect fit for our team!
We develop and share innovative tools to study blinding diseases and collaborate extensively across labs to test novel therapeutics in human model systems.

A human model of retinitis pigmentosa—developed by the Bright Center at @WashUMedDOVS—is now in press at @NeuroCellPress! @KLabVision and Ruzycki Labs combined animal and human models of retinitis pigmentosa to overcome a critical bottleneck in translating therapeutics to human
Daniel Kerschensteiner@KLabVision
New study led by @NingShenStella w/ @phruzycki: a genome-wide in vivo CRISPR screen in a retinitis pigmentosa mouse model identifies genes whose loss accelerates photoreceptor death. Overexpressing two, UFD1 and UXT, preserves photoreceptors, retinal function, and vision. 🧵

Research from @KLabVision published in @PNASNews, reveals how mice use vision to #hunt! 🐭🔬
Jenna Krizan, PhD, and colleagues revealed that some neurons in the superior colliculus inherit their motion-sensitive signaling patterns from the #retina.

In a new study led by @mike_fitz23, we describe a pupillary contrast response in mice and humans, which senses temporal contrast to enhance spatial contrast in the retinal image and increase visual acuity. We decipher the underlying neural mechanisms. bit.ly/3w8ieIV

In a new study led by @jmkrizan, we explore the origins of direction selectivity in superior colliculus and its contributions to predation, identifying behavioral multiplexing of complex feature preferences. bit.ly/49YwYZl

@JasonColasanti @AriellaStudies don't have to call me out like that 😅
consider this my public apology

Saw enormous bug in lab.
Wondered aloud how it survives in zero-food lab environment.
Boyfriend's response was not comforting...
"Lol we have those in our building because a lab was doing predation experiments and they got loose"
