Received my first not discussed grant score of the year. Part of the process and still plenty of year left. 🤞January has been a month. 😞15 Jan 2026 23:09 +0000at://did:plc:4uzxldchc5haqk4o7hpflmod/app.bsky.feed.post/3mcipc64j4k2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/freudlab.bsky.social/post/3m67x2obo7s2tGrateful to host Sen. Moran and NIH Director Jay Bhattacharyya in the lab today. Proud of our trainees, who showcased their work using the @lumicks.bsky.social C-Trap and the KU Cryo-EM Facility.
