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. 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!
