We’re heading to Woods Hole, MA for the 12th Aquatic Models of Human Disease Conference at @MBLScience! Join Aneesh Acharya and Megan Le on Monday, October 19, for our scientific session exploring how the HCR™ platform can support research across aquatic model organisms and sample types. Bring your questions, share your research and use cases, and stop by our table to connect with the team. We look forward to seeing you there!

Congrats to @KarlDeisseroth, Peter Hegemann, and Georg Nagel on the Nobel Prize! I've been waiting for this day since first seeing Karl talk at the Monday Night Lectures at @MBLScience ~15 years ago. I knew then that this work would change the future of neuroscience forever.
BREAKING NEWS The 2026 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel “for their discoveries concerning light-gated ion channels and optogenetics.”
