by Susie Fauble 02 May '25

02 May '25

Hello all, We are exploring the possibility of implementing a mentorship program within our faculty to foster professional development, collaboration, and support among colleagues. This program aims to pair experienced faculty members with newer or less experienced colleagues to share knowledge, provide guidance, and enhance our academic community. We believe that such a program could offer numerous benefits, including: * Enhanced professional growth and development * Improved collaboration and communication * Increased job satisfaction and retention * Strengthened sense of community and support Please feel free to share your feedback by May 30th, so we can consider all perspectives and make informed decisions. Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to hearing from you. https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.office.com/r/sxptqv7kKW__;!!PvXuo… Have a great weekend.

FW: Students awards
by Silvana Martini 02 May '25

02 May '25

Please help me congratulate Dr. Majumder's lab for their outstanding performance at the recent AOCS Meeting in Portland. Overall, his research group secured 7 awards during the meeting! I also want to congratulate all the UNL students that attended the meeting. People kept stopping me at the conference and congratulating me about the UNL representation! GBR! It is very fulfilling to see students being encouraged by their supervisors to participate in international conferences and putting themselves "out there" to share their research and experiences. It is great to win awards to be recognized, but I also want to emphasize that most of the times, selecting "winners" is very hard, and the important part is to "go out there" and show the world what you can do! Great job! I am extremely proud of each one of you! Congrats and keep up the good work!
