Biography:
Sally Hoskins is a developmental biologist focusing on embryonic and metamorphoic development of the nervous system in the clawed frog Xenopus laevis. The Hoskins' lab uses cellular and molecular methods to examine axon outgrowth and patterns of stem cell proliferation in the retina. Pictured is the staining pattern of an antibody made in the lab. The retinal ganglion cell layer and developing optic nerve of an embryonic eye are immunoreactive. Dr. Hoskins teaches graduate and undergraduate developmental neurobiology, as well as developmental biology and an experimental embryology lab course. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in 1982. She can be reached by phone at 212.650.8213
