Animal Molecular & Cellular Biology

The goal of the AMCB Interdisciplinary Concentration is to educate graduate @UF and @UF_IFAS students with an understanding of the principles of molecular and cell biology and the application of this knowledge to contemporary problems of comparative biology.

This years winner of the first #AMCB photo contest was @masroorsagheer2 pictured with his winning @uf_ansci #BRAHMAN bulls. Congratulations Masroor.

Congratulations to Masroor Sagheer (@masroorsagheer2) for winning the inaugural, 2024 AMCB photo contest. All entries can now be viewed on our website. programs.ifas.ufl.edu/animal-molecul…

Another #AMCB graduate defending his dissertation today. Congratulations Linkai Zhu and @ZongliangJiang

This semesters #AMCB seminar series has started with @CamilaJCuellar discussing new approaches to identify a good embryo..... including a photo bomb from @RocioMRivera

The 2024 annual AMCB research symposium is a great success. Thank you to our 2024 Distinguished Lecturer Dr Pablo Ross of STgenetics and all of our speakers.

A great interview with #AMCB, @uf_ansci faculty member and reproductive biology pioneer Dr Bill Thatcher... academic.oup.com/biolreprod/art…

Save the Date! 🐄 The 57th Florida Dairy Production Conference will be held at the Straughn Professional Development Center in Gainesville, FL on November 2nd!

A great #AMCB PhD defense from a very accomplished scientist. Congratualtions @FedeCunha and Klibs Galvão of @UFVetMed.

Last but not least, closing out the symposium with discussions ranging from new early pregnancy tests, choline supplementation during IVF, genetics of MRSA pathogens, responsiveness of epithelial cells to ruminal LPS, and finally investigating the circadian rhythms is worms.

Day 2 highlights including cellular memory, epigenetics of sperm, dietary arginine supplementation and an epigenetic modification that is not methylation.....

A handsome foursome at the #AMCB symposium this year.

Day 2 of the symposium is about to begin. Wakey wakey, eggs and bakey.

Thank you to our Distinguished Lecturer, Dr Pascale Chavette-Palmer from @INRAE_IDF discussing fetal programming in the rabbit. "Use the species that helps you answer your question."

Second session of the symposium covered ovidutal cells, automated esyrus detection, and embryonic development. @ufpjhansen ensured we were in the dark which made photos impossible (sorry).

Discussion on brown fat, prolactin, bacterial growth, muscle development and stem cells all in the first session of the annual #AMCB symposium.

The 21st annual #AMCB symposium kicks off on Thursday. Stayed tuned for updates from our members as they present their most current work and we welcome Dr Pascale Chavatte-Palmer from @INRAE_Intl as our Distinguished Lecturer. programs.ifas.ufl.edu/animal-molecul…

The latest #AMCB @UF_IFAS @uf_ansci graduate Usman Arshad. A 10 chapter dissertation and a great defense closed out a very productive program studying the effects of choline on dairy cow health and productivity. Congratulations!

Please join us for a special seminar presented by Simon Lilico of the @roslininstitute, entitled "Editing livestock genomes". This Friday, Oct 28 at 12 PM EST.
