Nicole presented her work looking at changes in the transcriptome of the spiral ganglion after noise exposure and conductive hearing loss. This is a new direction for the lab, and it was exciting to tell the story for the first time. Great job, Nicole!
Alumni from the lab went out for dinner after Saturday's poster session. Tenzin, Nicole, Xiaowen, Soham, and Soham's student Tom (right to left) wandered all over the Gaslamp Quarter and finally found a restaurant that wasn't packed with neuroscientists. The tiramisu was really good! It was great to see everyone, and hope Yang will be in the next photo!
Halloween is approaching, and Hubert has crawled out of his cupboard to do more labwork. He sure knows his PPE. Perhaps he learned his lesson, belatedly. This year, Hubert appears to be learning perfusions, but his mouse-handling skills seem to be poor. So, work late in Hochstetter at your own peril!
