Yes, we have hurricanes here in FL. BUT, we also have a department that truly cares! *hint**hint* in case you're looking for a phenomenal neuro PhD program to apply to this upcoming cycle ... UF McKnight Brain Institute University of Florida Department of Neuroscience Academic Chatter™

Great opportunity for teamwork at BrightFocus Foundation #ALZFastTrack! Excited to present our grant proposal representing the neuroinflammation sector 💪🏼😀 Dr. Malu Tansey Hannah Staley

Incredibly well done ⁦BrightFocus Foundation⁩ #ALZFastTrack #inflammation & #immunity group! You made us proud 🤓💪🏼⁦Mack⁩ ⁦Hannah Staley⁩ & team !!!

Join us Monday 2/27 for FLORIDA COM #CelebrationOfResearchEvent with #keynote Dr Emery Brown followed by #ResearchAsArt featuring work by UF CTRND UF McKnight Brain Institute University of Florida Department of Neuroscience graduate student the one and only Mack in #TanseyLab3ptO 🤓

A picture of a colon? At an art show? Heck yes!! Ecstatic to get to share my science in a unique way at UF’s Celebration of Research 👩🏼‍🔬🐊University of Florida Department of Neuroscience UF Biomed Sciences Huge thank you to my amazing lab family and mentor Dr. Malu Tansey for making Bolen’s colons possible!!

So lucky to have friends like this! March is #ColonCancerAwarenessMonth For those who don’t know, I was recently diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer. Cancer care is costly financially, physically, and mentally. And CRC is on the rise in younger pts. So pay attention to your 💩!

“What’s your research abou..” Me:

So proud of #tanseylab MD-PhD student and my mentee, Julian Mark, for swiping the student poster presentation award last week at #AAICimmunity Alzheimer's Association - this was his FIRST conference and poster. So watch this space, he's making waves 🌊

Very proud of UF CTRND University of Florida Department of Neuroscience UF McKnight Brain Institute trainees Mack Ethan Smith & Johleen Seedansingh today! Their talks were incredibly interesting. They all hit it out of the ballpark. Thank you Habibeh for bring a great #GRS leader and role model.

#TeamTansey at #parkinsons Gordon Research Conferences⁩ with 1.0 2.0 and 3.0 represented 🤓😍😎💪🏼

Lab life can definitely get tough but conferences like these make it all worth it! Excited to get back to the bench with refreshed and updated ideas 👩🏼‍🔬🔬 Thank you Gordon Research Conferences for such a beautiful and inspiring event! #Tanseylab takes Switzerland 🇨🇭

Bolen’s colons are back at it again and now funded 🔬😎 Beyond grateful for this award and opportunity! Thank you to Dr. Malu Tansey and University of Florida Department of Neuroscience for their constant support 🧠🧪 Bolen awarded Bryan Robinson Endowment neuroscience.ufl.edu/2023/06/13/mac…

So excited to share my "totally tubular" latest pre-print ✨🍾 here I show that pathogenic G2019S Lrrk2 increases lysosomal tubule-associated antigen presentation in macrophages and that ASO-mediated knock-down of Lrrk2 ameliorates this ✌️ biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Have had such a wonderful experience working with Dr. EA Thompson’s lab at Mayo Clinic to collect single-cell spatial data from human colon and brain 🤯 Thank you to UF McKnight Brain Institute University of Florida Department of Neuroscience and Dr. Malu Tansey for fostering such a collaborative environment 🔬👩🏼‍🔬

It’s been a beautiful day to chat about the colon at #ADPD2024 👩🏼‍🔬Extremely grateful for all the wonderful feedback and the opportunity to attend some stellar talks! Thank you to Dr. Malu Tansey and University of Florida Department of Neuroscience for their continuous support 🤩🐊

I LOVED her talk. Her spunk was wonderful, too. Opening her talk with ‘It’s a wonderful day to talk about the colon.’ Was classic. Photos of her at the podium with cochairs.

A critical takeaway of my PhD training has been the importance of team science! Thank you Dr. Malu Tansey & University of Florida Department of Neuroscience UF McKnight Brain Institute🤩 Honored to continue to pursue this research under Parkinson's Foundation Research funding and due to the collaborative effort of Mayo Clinic! neuroscience.ufl.edu/2024/04/24/con…

Parkinson's Foundation is pleased to provide talented young scientists the support to visit other labs to spur collaboration and learn new techniques to advance #Parkinsons research. Mack is just one of those with the promise of making a difference.

📢 Congratulations to 2024 Visiting Scholar Awardee, Mack, whose project focuses on gut-first biomarker discovery within #Parkinsons disease. Dr. Bolen will be mentored by Aubrey Thompson at Mayo Clinic. Parkinson's Foundation

Working on some spatial proteomics with Akoya Biosciences and thanks to Dr. Malu Tansey, can’t get over this beautiful colon pic🤩
