THIS GIRLIE IS TENURED @TAMU! 💁🏽♀️
Tenacity and courage brought me to this moment of celebration - impactful science, organic community, and learning by teaching! 🙌🏽
Propped up by strong mentors and exceptional students - what a wild but humbling trial by fire @bmentamu! 😍

#OvarianCancer Awareness Day at @TAMU led by our Board Member & 28 year Ovarcomer Betty and Dr. @LabRaghavan - keep sharing the B.E.A.C.H. symptoms of ovarian cancer:
B=Bloating
E=Early Satiety
A=Abdominal &/or Pelvic Pain
C=Changes in Bowel/Bladder Habits
H=Heightened Fatigue

Whoop! 🙌 Nearly 1,200 people joined A Day at the B.E.A.C.H. at @TAMU Engineering featuring
🏖️ Beach Balls with ovarian cancer facts
🏖️ B.E.A.C.H. cards & bracelets
🏖️ Spirit of Ovarcoming from 28-year OVARCOMER Betty🩵
Thank you Dr. @LabRaghavan & @AggieFootball!🙏 #Ovarcome

A third PhD defense from the Raghavan Lab, it's @ClaudiaConvo 's turn next!
She defends a significant body of work on how neuro-immune crosstalk disrupts colon motility, in #GulfWarIllness impacting long-term #VeteranHealth

Out now in @BioMaterSci - t.ly/t49wg cross-pollinating Raghavan lab, @WalshLab_TAMU and @DanielAlge labs- a new optical clearing - light sheet microscopy based full volume imaging and automated analysis pipeline to see deep in decell ECM scaffolds!

Led by Oscar Benavides and @SabrinaVH_ , with a team of grad students and undergrads to make this happen over many years!
dECM scaffolds are amazing, but wouldn't it be better if we can actually see through its entire volume to map cell-biomaterial interactions? 😍

And @ClaudiaConvo defends her dissertation next week too! Her first person interview is inspiring and she continues to inspire me everyday!

Couldn’t be happier to announce I have successfully defended my dissertation! Grateful for the support of mentors {@LabRaghavan}, colleagues, family and friends throughout. A sweet end to a long chapter that asked a lot, and gave even more.
xo, Dr. (VandenHeuvel) Reinthaler, PhD

Manuscript drop from the Raghavan Lab led by @ClaudiaConvo @bmentamu in @Co_Biologists @BiologyOpen : t.ly/SHfzZ
🧩For years we've wondered why one-time toxic exposure during combat results in drastic gut symptoms decades after initial exposure! (1/4)

🛠️Usually, neural stem cells repair the circuitry of the gut!
🌪️Toxic exposure fuels low-grade inflammation in the gut, especially in its resident macrophage immune cells.
💢 Macrophages amplify inflammation around the neural stem cells - resulting in wonky re-wiring.

This discovery was made possible with @CDMRP funding! Now that we know HOW low-grade inflammation persists, we're working on newer methods to target it (collabing with @nhc_nanomedlab) to improve the quality of life of Gulf War combat veterans!

It was both a blessing and an honor to have @ovarcome Betty White talk to @bmentamu Cancer Bioengineering class - always important to keep in mind the humans your work may one day impact 🩵 our students also walked away with B. E. A. C. H. awareness!
27 year Ovarcomer Betty shares her story & the B.E.A.C.H. with @TAMU biomedical engineering students! 👏 Special thanks to Dr. @LabRaghavan for hosting this important event and helping us raise awareness and break the silence on ovarian cancer. THIS is how #WeOvarcome! 💙🙏🏼
