Exciting image (and shout out to RBK contributor Sanjay Jain @WUSTL!) #CellMapCrew
Does your stream of consciousness ever lead you to wonder what the kidney beans to you? Check out this #CODEX image, part of the urgent work done by Drs. Tarek Ashkar @IU and Sanjay Jain @WUSTL. Urine in for a treat, and we aren't kidney-ing! @_hubmap @kpmproject #CellMapCrew
