Honoured to speak at International Congress of Retinal Proteins #ICRP2026 in Siena about our research on #deep-sea fish rhodopsins! I enjoyed week full of protein structure, function and physiology of a multitude of #rhodopsin types. Extremely inspiring and happy to meet old and new friends:-)

Graduate student Allie Beyer crushing it at the #ICRP2026 (International Conference on Retinal Proteins) meeting in Sienna, Italy. Way to go, Allie & way to go ancient rhodopsins! 👏👏👏@uwmadgsed.bsky.social @uwbact.bsky.social

First visitors of the new lab came all the way from Japan 🫶 Always a pleasure to discuss #opsin_mechanisms with Shoko and Satoshi and really looking forward to see them again this afternoon together with many other familiar faces at the #ICRP2026 starting today in Siena🇮🇹🧬🍾

Our study on the whale shark visual pigment published earlier in PNAS www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... will be presented this week in Siena, Italy, at 21th Intl Conf Retinal Proteins #ICRP2026
