Excited to announce that the Yellajoshyula lab will start at Case Western. It’s an honor to call the CWRU Neurosciences faculty my colleagues. I will cherish my memories @ U Michigan. Excited for the new chapter with the Collins lab (@CathyFlyMom). case.edu/medicine/neuroscien…

We saw a photo of Santa on the Huron River. Clara: Is that the real Santa or is it a meme? Me: do you know what a meme is? Clara: A meme is like Santa on the river Jay: A meme is like a unicorn flossing with explosions in the background.
