Today, for #WorldSightDay, we're highlighting exciting research like the work underway in our lab! 🔬 We are focused on understanding the molecular processes of #glaucoma. This work will help protect and regenerate damaged nerves, ultimately preserving sight #visionresearch

The first lab meeting of the school year was filled with energy. Everyone is eager to get started. Looking forward to a year full of science, learning and new discoveries! @kbi-uhn.bsky.social @uhnresearch.ca @dkjei-uhn.bsky.social

Meet our summer students @dkjei-uhn.bsky.social!

Sofia Cruz, from @mcmasteruniversity.bsky.social, is a summer student in @sivaklab.bsky.social. This summer, she ran Western Blots to test newly synthesized drugs called PROTACs for their ability to degrade MNKs, hoping to address #glaucoma (1/2)

Today was all about bright ideas and bold research!

#SummerStudentResearchDay brought together 25+ student presentations, with each student diving deep into discovery🔬🥼📚

Congrats to the winners!
