It’s a wrap #ISPL2024! Thanks @ecahoon2, Ruth Welti & @KentChapman12 for organizing this meeting & giving me & @UNLincoln @NebEngineering’s Abraham Osinuga chances to present our @NSF & @NIGMS
funded collaborative work! Really enjoyed this meeting & discussions with colleagues!

What a #commencement address by @rogerfederer: 1) Effortless is a myth; 2) It is only a point; 3) Life is bigger than the court. Even as one of the best ever, he won about 80% matches & only 55% of the points from 1251 matches! #learn from your #losses

Over this summer, we are hosting two REU students, Thomas from @UNLincoln @NebEngineering @UNL_ChemEng & Prince from @IowaStateU @ISU_CoE @ISU_ME at our @SSbio_UNL Lab! They will work on the @NSF funded work #synthetic cuticle.
