Do you know someone who had lean gestational diabetes?🙋‍♀️PhD candidate Kathryn Kathryn Storey is working on an experiment with pancreatic islet-placenta communication to learn why this happens! Schulz Lab - MU #placentasarecool #tuesdaytakeover @J_MiLfos #scifluencer

Kathryn Storey gave Schulz lab's first ever IFPA presentation. Truly international, with presenters in her session speaking from home in India, Belgium, UK, U.S. & more #IFPA2021

Loved presenting my research yesterday at #IFPA2021! Thank you so much to the organizing committee for the opportunity. Amazing to see what incredible placental biology research is being done around the globe!

Extremely proud of Schulz Lab - MU undergraduate researcher Juliann Leak for presenting her work on ACTC1 in early placental development today at Mizzou #healthsciencesresearchday!

The holidays shouldn’t be a time to recharge. They should be a time to celebrate. If work is exhausting people to the point that they’re using their time off to recover, you might have a burnout culture. A healthy organization doesn’t leave people drained in the first place.

It’s been a busy summer in the Schulz Lab - MU! I had the opportunity to present some of my dissertation research on gestational diabetes pathophysiology at #SSR2023 and undergraduate researcher Ashley Monks was chosen as an Mizzou Honors College Cherng Scholar, presenting her research today!

Fantastic webinar talk today given by Sferruzzi-Perri lab for SSR BOR Winners Webinar Series on placental adaptations/changes to support fetal growth in differing gestational environments! Loved hearing more about the work from your lab!

Dear Mother Nature, Please shed light on which of the human organs is the most important, yet least studied?

Thrilled to receive the People’s Choice Award for my elevator pitch at the Greenwald Symposium last week! It was a fantastic two days full of repro science, new and old friends, and incredible research!
