Assitant Professor of Medicine at Indiana University studying the kidney in 3D with lightsheet microscopy.
Congrats to Adil Ali for getting his paper accepted at KI! He worked hard getting high-fidelity segmentation of all major structures of the kidney glomerulus, which was imaged at 100nm resolution! Check out a ton of interesting 3D data in the repository- including 3D printable files!

We were already using #cellpose to segment kidney tubules but this combination with SAM should make it even more generalizable and powerful! Very exciting!

Thrilled to announce that I will be joining Indiana University School of Medicine as an Assistant Professor this summer! A primary focus of my lab will be to develop technologies to study #kidney diseases in 3D at the organ-scale. Lots of fun imaging to follow!

My annual Valentine’s post of this image that happens to land on #FluorescenceFriday this year! An axon approaching a kidney glomerulus doing its best to look like a rose.

After a long journey, Segment Anything for Microscopy is now published in Nature Methods! We significantly improve SAM for interactive and automatic segmentation in light and electron microscopy and build a user-friendly tool.

I do not recommend this life style, it sucks
Most of us just want to do important science unpeturbed.
