So so so very grateful for the past 6 years. What an adventure! Thank you for all the one-on-one lab meetings before the lab existed, pep talks on drives to conferences, and countless other bits of mentorship along the way. Can’t wait to see what the lab gets up to in the years to come!

🍾🧪The end of an era! Today we said so long to Dr. Troy Anderson. Troy was the very first person to join me in the Smeeton lab. He just defended his PhD and is off to start his postdoc next month. We will miss you Troy!! #proudPI @troy-anderson.bsky.social #zebrafish
