I had a great time visiting Iowa and my PhD advisor Mark Stamnes. It was great fun presenting our lab’s work on “the role of division and membrane trafficking in tissue morphogenesis”. It was also nice to see friends and see how much Iowa City has grown!
Heidi and Mark
Lindsay, Julie, Erin, Abrar, Nikhila, and Jessica all attended the CNY zebrafish conference this year at Syracuse University. Lindsay did a great job with her seminar that utilized an ontogenetic system with the small GTPase Rab11 and Julie presented on PLK1 in the zebrafish embryo during the poster session. Here are some pictures below:

Shown are Nikhila, Erin, Jess, and Abrar at Julie’s poster!
Congrats to Michael and Julie on a great poster presentation, getting Research Distinction awards, and soon to be graduating from Syracuse University! The Hehnly lab is super excited to keep both of them next year as research technicians while they prepare for their next steps.
Michael presenting his poster to a Hehnly Lab Alum, Alice. This work was done in collaboration with Erica Colicino (Hehnly Lab, currently at University of Michigan).
Julie presenting her work on cilia formation in the zebrafish organ of asymmetry. This work was done in collaboration with Lindsay Rathbun (Hehnly Lab).
For our Microscopy in Cell Biology Class Doug Matthew’s of Leica came by last Wednesday to discuss STED and FLIM. It was awesome and he brought us Spring themed donuts!
