This is a great week to reflect on what we're thankful for. We're grateful for our world class faculty. They're moving humanity forward through innovation and discovery, yet they always make time for our students. To all of our faculty: thank you!

The senior @SchmidtFellows conference in Chicago was absolutely extraordinary. Getting to learn from this group of brilliant, kind, and creative scientists from all over the world and across all disciplines is a privilege I will never take for granted.

Speaking to MechSE undergrad Michael Haughey, you can’t help but smile. He lights up a room with his enthusiasm for being an engineering student. Read Michael's story here: mechse.illinois.edu/news/598… @uofigrainger

Pituitary gland fans, check out the latest article from my lab, published in the @TheEndoSociety journal Endocrinology. academic.oup.com/endo/articl… Thanks @MCB_Illinois for featuring us. Also, MCB students are fantastic! @richardgonigam led the work with help from @xiyuge29
#Hypopituitarism occurs when the pituitary gland, a small, pea-sized gland at the base of the brain, does not make enough hormones essential for growth, metabolism, and reproduction. @PrairieLTR studies pituitary gland development and related diseases like hypopituitarism.

For those wondering, the sign language translator at tonight’s Lewiston press conference is incredibly important for these briefings. Four members of Maine’s deaf community were killed, so their family especially needs this form of communication. While the faces she is making might look like funny, emoting is an important part of ASL sign language.

A @ILLINOISmed study is a step toward identifying potential links between brain activity, balance, and fall risk. These modifiable factors may be targetable to reduce falls that threaten the health of older adults. bit.ly/498xNir

13 years ago this month, my son was diagnosed with brain cancer. I promised him that I would do everything I could to help kids with #ChildhoodCancer. It’s the only thing he asked us to do. Not to help him, but to help others. I would be grateful for a follow or a RT to spread awareness and honor his journey. 🙏🏻 – at Kechi, KS
