May 2025

Sunny and warm - time for an ice cream in Weston Park

Tanya's chapter on development of the semicircular canals, otoliths and otoconia is now out in Current Topics in Developmental Biology: Development of the Senses, eds. Guy Richardson and Doris Wu.  Free to download until July:  https://authors.elsevier.com/a/1l8PbFzn7WIEK

An image from the lab is currently on display in the wonderful exhibition 'Anatomy at Sheffield: from scalpel to virtual dissection and beyond’, curated by Daniela Cacciabue, in collaboration with the University Library.  The opening event on 2nd May included a fascinating and entertaining talk on the cochlea by Professor Matthew Mason (University of Cambridge).
