A super evening at Bocca, with Cynthia Owsley and Mike Sloane. Enduring friendship, and scientific achievement - vision and outcome measures for AMD onset in ALSTAR/2. Today ends 33 years as full-time faculty and start of a new phase of beating AMD! @UABophtho; @UABHeersink;

AMD.Lab is moving! Jeff Messinger supervises the transfer of our ex vivo imaging workhorse Spectralis to Advancing Sight Network. Look for us there! Our human ocular tissue methods will become part of Precision Ocular Biobank protocols. @UABophtho; @UABHeersink; @AdvancingSight;

Our IZ map was the February cover picture of IOVS! Another round of applause for Sohaib and our boss Doheny collaborators. Discovered before March rolled in 😉 @UABophtho; @UABHeersink; @DohenyEye;.

Uh wait, mechanoreceptors around the eye? Would you elaborate on that? I'd love to learn a lot more.

We love visitors to UAB – David Krizaj is THE expert on mechanoreceptors in the front and back of the eye! And dining with Rafael Grytz and Konark Mukerjee at Bocca in downtown Birmingham was great fun. 😋 Glad you could join us, David! @UABophtho; @UABHeersink; @dkrizaj;

Many 🙌 🙌🙏from the ALSTAR2 team to our fantastic Doheny collaborators - the IZ is a candidate OCT biomarker for structural change at AMD’s beginning. Where better to look, than where photoreceptors receive retinoids from RPE? @UABophtho; @UABHeersink; @DohenyEye;.

The High-resolution Imaging Facility rebounded with style from the 2022 flood – here is a spanking new JEOL 1400 Flash Transmission EM, with Melissa Chimento (formerly of AMD.Lab). What will this new instrument do for us Aficionados of the Subcellular? @UABophtho; @UABHeersink;

Mass spectrometry + single cell gene expression = insight into cone photoreceptor membranes. So many lipids found by Jianzhong Chen in samples of subretinal fluid. Thanks, Iowa, for the Spectacle database! In EER: 10.1016/j.exer.2024.109807; @UABophtho; @UABHeersink; @MCG_AUG
