Developmental biologist, Professor, eye development enthusiast!
To all of my university faculty friends, as tenure and promotion season is just around the corner I thought I would share a little academic humor with you. Enjoy!

Happy to have had high school students Robyn Pate and Joy Sweeny (front row) spend the week with us learning about my lab and Drosophila eye development. Thanks to graduate students Ren Wilson and Mie Kusupholnand for serving as their research mentors.

A portion of my lab took a break from their experiments and joined me at our local Strawberry Shortcake Festival in Bloomington, Indiana.

Very late in posting...many thanks to my friend and host Markus Friedrich for an awesome visit to the Departments of Biological Sciences and Ophthalmology at Wayne State University. Great catching up with an old friend, talking science, and presenting our newest story on Drosophila eye development.

Super excited that my superstar friend Soni Lacefield @lacefieldlab.bsky.social is a AAAS fellow! See how her creative research is making an impact on our understanding of meiosis and infertility.

Feeling very lost today with the news of the passing of my undergrad advisor Scott Hawley. He had a huge impact on the field and on me personally. He was the first person to see me as a scientist and gave me the confidence to apply to grad school. I am so grateful to be a part of his legacy.

It was finally warm enough here in Bloomington to spend some time in the backyard taking pictures. Look who showed up!

NoA for my new NIH grant just arrived. Many thanks to the National Eye Institute for what will be 27 years of continuous and generous funding of my studies into the mechanisms underlying Drosophila eye specification and patterning. @michaelfchiang.bsky.social
