Good morning,
To ensure smooth and efficient handling of all deliveries, we kindly request that everyone includes their full name, or contact name, on any packages or mail sent to the department.
We had a delivery this morning, and have had in the past, without any contact information on the delivery.
Putting a name on the order will help us quickly identify and distribute items to the correct recipients, avoiding unnecessary delays and wasted time.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Susie

Congratulations to Car Reen Kok for being named the recipient of the Global Prebiotics Association (GPA) 2025 Young Researcher Award for Applied Research. The award is based on her paper "Identification of carbohydrate gene clusters obtained from in vitro fermentations as predictive biomarkers of prebiotic responses" published in BMC Microbiology<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/urldefense.us/v3/__https:/bmcmicrobiol.b…>. Devin Rose, Juan Cui from Computer Science, Lisa Whisenhunt from the Nebraska Food for Health Center (NFHC), and Bob Hutkins were co-authors on the paper that was funded in part by the NFHC.
Car Reen earned her B.S. from UNL in Biochemistry and then moved to Bob Hutkins' lab for her M.S. in Food Science and Technology and her Ph.D. in Complex Biosystems. She is now a Staff Scientist at Lawrence Livermore National Lab.
I know many of you know Car Reen, so please help me congratulate her and her team on this outstanding accomplishment!
Congrats!
