Hi! I’m Ti-Ara (Tee), an immunologist in training at the University of Iowa. I’m documenting my journey as a minority student who came to graduate school with little research experience. Welcome to the journey 🥼👩🏾🔬💉.

Congrats to @rachel_shrode on her PhD defense! With 7 publications, an F31 Fellowship, Best Poster Award & Dare to Discover campaign honors, Rachel has truly excelled. We celebrated with special microbiome-themed cake—here’s to a bright future, Dr. Fitzjerrells! #PhD #microbiome

Study: Growing evidence highlights crucial role of gut #microbiota in #MultipleSclerosis, with potential as diagnostic & therapeutic tool. More research needed to ID specific bacteria linked to MS & explore impact of other microbiomes (eg, oral & nasal) on disease progression.
Congratulations to @sciencewithtee, Peter, @sudeepghimire_ & @shahibiotech for review on the factors (host & environmental) regulating #gutmicrobiota & mechanism(s) by which #gutmicrobes influence #MultipleSclerosis, especially #immunesystem modulation tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

It was great to have John @LukensJohnR for our immunology graduate program seminar series where he showed his cool work on the role of innate immune dysfunction in neurological diseases & teasers pointing towards role of adaptive immunity #immuneresponse #traumaticbraininjury

Happy Juneteenth! Let today also be a reminder to all that African-Americans were enslaved people in America far longer than free.
#OnThisDay in 1865, General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, TX to read Order No. 3, which affirmed the end of slavery in the states of the former Confederacy. This momentous occasion has been celebrated as #Juneteenth — a combination of “June” & “19th” — for over 150 years.

Although it was thought that IL-17A is required for brain specific inflammation and demyelination but data from a graduate student Ti-Ara @sciencewithtee show that even mice lacking IL17A or even IFNg can develop brain specific disease Poster# B758 @ImmunologyAAI #AAI2024

Ti-Ara @sciencewithtee, @UIImmunology graduate student and a Mangalamanian did a excellent job presenting her work on atypical EAE in mice lacking both IFNg and IL-17A @uiowa @UIPathology @ImmunologyAAI #AAI2024
Congratulations to my dear best friend Allie Smith for successfully defending her PhD thesis. She’s worked hard to have 10 publications and to graduate in 3.5 years! 🎉😀

I had a blast at my first AAI convention #AAI2023! Loved the supportive scientific environment and learned so much! Especially hearing about science policy and government positions! I'm excited for my future after graduation and can't wait to see where immunology takes me next!

Thankful to #AAI for allowing me to present my research this year at #immunology2023

Although both IL17A and IFNg are linked with Multiple sclerosis, their precise role in pathobiology of MS is still unknown, talented graduate student in Mangalam lab Ti-Ara Turner, will show data from HLA-DR3 transgenic mice lacking both IL17A and IFNg #AAI2023 @UIImmunology
