Favorite retinal cell: type-6 ON Bipolar Cell- the intricate, spindly axonal processes are quite mesmerizing to look at  

Thoughts on the retina: If you were to ask someone which sense they would be least willing to lose, most would say “sight.” Vision plays such a critical role in our daily lives, and I believe the retina, one of the most intricately organized structures in the nervous system, holds much to learn about how we view the world. By advancing our understanding of the retina, we can make strides toward making vision loss a thing of the past. 

Hobbies: disc golf, watching F1 racing, and walking his dog, Rocky.
