Postdoctoral researcher Erin Carr has discovered a novel fungus — which she has nicknamed Goopy — that may be a resource for large-scale, cost-effective production of melanin. go.unl.edu/cpqf #Nebraska #UNL @UNL_ChemEng @NebEngineering @UNLresearch

It was buzzing in the Microscopy Core today! 🔬Morning: Users imaging biological samples 🔬Afternoon: engineers exploring identification of microplastics, time-course nanofluid flooding & 3D-printed structures. Love seeing high schoolers to postdocs diving into science together.

Ever wondered what the Nebraska Center for Biotechnology is all about? From cutting-edge research to hands-on workshops, we support scientists across campus and beyond. Learn more on our website: biotech.unl.edu — or reach out anytime. #BiotechMonday #CoreFacilities

Science attracts brilliant people with random backgrounds. I always value insight from the multiple perspectives they bring. If you do too, please consider attending this online session from @ASPB_WiPB and @ASPB on how to support perspectives! CU there!

Catch Dr. Alfonso Blanco’s engaging overview of small particle sorting on the CytoFLEX SRT—an instrument in our Flow Cytometry Core at UNL. A true leader in the field, Dr. Blanco is passionate about pushing flow cytometry forward! labroots.com/ms/webinar/cyt… #BiotechMonday #Flow

Nothing beats starting the day with good food and even better people. Grateful for the amazing teams that keep Biotech running strong! #Biotech #Thankyou #Appreciation

Thanks to all who joined our SEM/EDS Workshop! Hands-on training in imaging & analysis. Imaging highlights: raw 🐔, nematodes, biochar, & a coin w/ powder residue! Thanks Bob @Hitachi_US & Sonika @OxInst for your time, expertise, & donation! Got a sample? Come test it with us!

Dirk, director of our Flow Cytometry & Single Cell Core, was invited by @10xGenomics to speak at #CYTO2025 last week! 🌍 He shared how he bridges cytometry & genomics. 🔬💡 We’re already eyeing #CYTO2026—join us in Florida! #CoreFacilities #SingleCell #FlowCytometry

Representing @UNLincoln in South Dakota! @unl_bcrf, @Cryo_UNLbiotech, and Microscopy (@AltartouriB) connected with colleagues and collaborators at the Central Regional IDeA-CTR conference last week in Rapid City. #Networking #CryoEM #Bioinformatics #Microscopy #BiotechMonday

Delving into Nebraska's alkaline lakes, researchers are uncovering the secrets of tiny microscopic organisms that play a huge role in soil and ecosystem health. @NSF @UNL_IANR go.unl.edu/gnop

☀️ Summer break? Not for your research! Our core facilities are open & ready to help. 🧪🧬🔬 ▶️biotech.unl.edu #BiotechMonday #CoreFacilities #SummerScience #UNL #Research @UNLresearch
