Kelly B. Menees, PhD

Check out our latest review on the influence of the gut microbiome on innate immunity in neurodegenerative diseases 🧫🧠🦠 out now in #Neurotherapeutics

Up on cloud 9 with my science amiguis - thanks for having us #PDGRC23 it's been an incredible week 👩‍🔬🧠

Excited to share the latest book chapter by @ASAPLiddleTeam members @KellyMenees & @brittney_otero in @MaluTansey #tansey3ptO in the book edited by our co-PI on @ASAPLiddleTeam Tim Sampson @EmoryMedicine nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

Excited to share our new book chapter is out now!

So lucky to be able to travel with my amiguis 👯‍♀️ to such beautiful places 🏔️ all in the name of sharing scientific knowledge - I'm so lucky ☺️ @UriarteOihane @JS_Boles @GillettDrew @KellyMenees

@SamSpellicy Congratulations Sam!!!

Well, I checked the wrong email for the first 5 mins... But I'm going to be a Neurosurgeon!!! #Match2022 #Neurosurgery

@JamiseLeeLab Congratulations!!! 🎊🎉

I am thrilled and honored to be promoted to Associate Professor with tenure. Thanks to my previous mentors, mentees, colleagues and collaborators. Yay!!!! 🍾🥳🎉

@JamiseLeeLab I could not have done it without such a great mentor! @JamiseLeeLab

Congratulation to my PhD student, @KellyMenees in @JamiseLeeLab for her successful thesis defense today! It was a great journey and wish for the best for her postdoctoral training in Dr. Tansey's lab @MaluTansey at UF.  #ILSUGA

@BurtchTay Thank you so much!!!

We are seeking Postdoc in the neurodegenerative disease and Technician with animal experience. Lee lab at UGA work on innate immune cells in Lewy body disease. Email/DM me or apply link below if interested! #postdoc#technician#PD ugajobsearch.com/postings/240527 ugajobsearch.com/postings/240525

@JamiseLeeLab @MichaelJFoxOrg Congratulations!!!! 🎊🎉 🤗

I have been waiting for this day for so long! So excited to launch the new R01 project, which the initial work was supported by @MichaelJFoxOrg, now I move forward with an in-depth study of the role of #NK cells in #PD with the support from #NINDS. 🥳🎉🎊

So proud of our team Community Connections (@SamSpellicy @AustinPassaro & Twitterless Jessica S.) for making it to the top 5! Tune in tonight at 5pm (startups.uga.edu/COVID) to see us and the other top 4 teams pitch our ideas. There's a vote for audience favorite!

Take a look at some of the amazing work by RBC graduate students @HartEarls and @KellyMenees in the lab of Dr. Jamise Lee!

@RossMarklein @regenbiograds @UGAResearch @ILS_UGA @UGA_WiSci Thank you so much!

Excited and honored to have our work published in PNAS this week! This study reveals that NK cells can internalize and degrade a-syn aggregates. Additionally, in a mouse model of PD NK cell depletion leads to exacerbated motor deficits and syn pathology. pnas.org/content/early/…
