Mark Humayun, a noted ophthalmologist, University Professor, and co-inventor of Argus II “bionic eye,” which restores functional sight to those with complete retinal blindness, has been named the Slivinski Chair in Macular Degeneration Research.

The setting suggests a formal event or recognition ceremony. Two awards from the Keck School of Medicine of USC displayed in transparent cases, each featuring a miniature golden chair mounted on a black base with an engraved plaque.

Hello world! Today’s officially the first day of the lab! It’s an empty space currently only filled with ideas (that I don’t have card access to yet 😂) but I’m excited for the science that will happen here! -JCG

Underneath it’s written “as an assistant professor 9/2/2025” although that doesn’t come out as clear in the photo.

Dr. Eamon Doyle’s paper measures brain blood flow from an MRI … even when part of an image is missing.

Does this matter?

We can use MRIs that aren’t perfect, see patterns of flow in the arteries, and understand how health affects them.

Dr. Bethany Sussman's paper finds older women - but not men - show increased regional cerebrovascular reactivity. This may reflect healthier vascular aging in women, with implications for brain resilience.

Somewhere in the U.S., there’s a scientist staring at their NSF/NIH grant application wondering why they bother. This post is for you. Science and society both need you. Hang in there and know there is a whole community supporting you.
