The Cleaver lab has gone dark this week! As you may have heard, I (@MitzyCowdin, holder of the Lab studs’ Twitter) had an eye injury so the lab members decided to leave the main lights off and work with just bench lights! Not a bad way to work honestly. Only a little spooky 👻

Join a lab where, after venting about a frustrating morning where life and lab things came tumbling down, your fellow trainees pick up your favorite snackies and leave them outside lab 🥺 @cleaverlabstud1 #gradschool #lablife

Our @UTSWmstp rotation student, Peter Luo, just gave his end-of-rotation presentation on kidney #endothelial heterogeneity & he killed it! We are sad his time with us is coming to an end (but maybe not forever- stay tuned!!) 🤩
