With two decades proudly under their belts, the Henhouse Prowlers' sight remains fixed on the future. Ever constant in the group's electric performances is their ability to showcase their passion for music and people. All four members possess a knack for storytelling, compelling songwriting and intricate instrumentation. Rooted in tradition yet unafraid to venture into new musical territory, the Prowlers occupy a space that defies easy categorization; one that is consistently fresh, relevant and captivating. To date, the band has toured 30 countries across five continents, collaborating with the U.S. State Department and through their own nonprofit, Bluegrass Ambassadors. These global experiences have not only shaped their worldview but also reinforced their mission: to build bridges between cultures through music. For the Henhouse Prowlers, the work extends far beyond the stage; they are deeply committed to using their art in the service of a more connected and compassionate world. The Bottle Tops are a husband-and-wife duo, Kerry and Mike Semrad, from Lincoln, Neb. With family stories, the music industry and oddities along the way, their entertaining stage show brings nothing but smiles for miles. Audiences are sure to stomp along to the band’s unique rockabilly sounds and inspirations from yesteryear.

Inspired by travels with family and friends, Valery transforms photographs into paintings that invite a deeper, more personal reflection. Each piece requires careful attention to detail, reconnecting her with the memories of a specific time and place. Marbles, with their bold and brilliant colors, are treasures in their own right and reflect her fascination with vibrant hues. Likewise, the luminous array of colors found in flowers continues to bring her immense joy—an energy that shines throughout this collection. Valery Wachter is a dedicated member of the Lincoln arts community. She has served on the Friends of UNL Art Department board, MEDICI, the Hixson-Lied College of Fine and Performing Arts Alumni Board and the selection committee for the Mayor’s Arts Awards. She is represented by the Burkholder Project Gallery and is a founding and current member of the Bryan Health Art Committee. Valery holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Her work is included in private collections across the country and her sculpture Nebraska Wildflowers is permanently installed on the Bryan East Campus.

NFHC Food for Health Seminar Series: Visiting Speaker Dr. Daniel Merenstein Sept. 12th INFORMATION
by Susie Fauble 11 Sep '25

11 Sep '25

Hello All, This Friday will be our first Food for Health Seminar Series speaker of the semester. Dr. Robert Hutkins and Dr. Jennifer Auchtung have invited Dr. Daniel Merenstein from Georgetown University. Please find the flyer both below and attached for information regarding Dr. Merenstein's visit. We will be in person in FIC 277 on Friday. There will also be a zoom connection. [cid:image001.jpg@01DC2316.391173D0] *Information repeated for ease of viewing* Presenter: Dr. Daniel Merenstein from Georgetown University Title: "Clinical translation of biotic science; How can we enhance impact" Summary: Biotic science, encompassing probiotics and related interventions, has advanced rapidly, yet its clinical translation remains limited. Often when recommended and used products are not used in an evidence-based manner. Despite some randomized controlled trials, guideline recommendations often diverge due to variability in strain specificity, study quality, and external validity. This presentation examines barriers to the clinical impact of biotic science, including inconsistent communication, lack of adequately powered trials, underreporting of adverse events, and limited relevance to real-world settings. Drawing on clinical trial experience at Georgetown University, we highlight lessons for improving study design and translation. We also consider how knowledge, attitudes, and communication strategies shape clinician behavior, emphasizing the need for patient-oriented outcomes, transparency in guidelines, and responsible scientific communication. Ultimately, stronger clinical evidence, clearer communication, and thoughtful trial design are essential to enhance the credibility, uptake, and impact of biotic science in medical practice. Location: FIC 277 & Zoom Date/Time:  Friday Sept.12th, Noon-12:55pm (CT) Snacks & coffee will be available outside FIC 277 starting around 11:30am.

NIC News & Events [https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://mcusercontent.com/aa74e0e500b559fc0e6fc… ] THIS WEEK AT NIC CAMPUS UPDATES | NEWS & EVENTS [https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://mcusercontent.com/aa74e0e500b559fc0e6fc… ] Massage Monday Monday, September 8 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. Link, 1st Floor NIC Partners are encouraged to take a well-deserved break and receive a FREE 5-minute chair massage.

Grammy-winning fiddle virtuoso Bronwyn Keith-Hynes is stepping into the spotlight. After several years of wowing audiences as the fiddler for Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway, the two-time IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year is striking out on her own, fronting a band for the first time and bringing her voice to the forefront. Known for her fiery fiddle playing and pure, rootsy singing, Keith-Hynes’ debut vocal album ‘I Built a World’ earned her a Grammy nomination, and American Songwriter calls her “a world-class fiddler with a golden voice.” Keith-Hynes’ music blends high-octane bluegrass sensibilities with the soul of country and American Roots music. Backed by a powerhouse group of Nashville musicians hand-picked from her tight-knit community, Keith-Hynes represents the next generation of top-tier bluegrass musicians, who will be appreciated for generations to come. Hailing from Lincoln, Neb., The Midnight Wanderers started over a decade ago when husband-and-wife duo Matt and Jenny Richardson delved deeper into the folk tradition. Matt picked up the banjo, and Jenny gravitated to the upright bass. From there, they shaped their band and the old-time goodness of their setlists, with music covering the gamut of Americana. The Midnight Wanderers are a collaborative effort, taking turns singing lead and selecting songs that keep the set diverse. With tunes curated from many genres, including classic rock, Western swing, country and bluegrass, there is something for everyone.

Inspired by travels with family and friends, Valery transforms photographs into paintings that invite a deeper, more personal reflection. Each piece requires careful attention to detail, reconnecting her with the memories of a specific time and place. Marbles, with their bold and brilliant colors, are treasures in their own right and reflect her fascination with vibrant hues. Likewise, the luminous array of colors found in flowers continues to bring her immense joy—an energy that shines throughout this collection. Valery Wachter is a dedicated member of the Lincoln arts community. She has served on the Friends of UNL Art Department board, MEDICI, the Hixson-Lied College of Fine and Performing Arts Alumni Board and the selection committee for the Mayor’s Arts Awards. She is represented by the Burkholder Project Gallery and is a founding and current member of the Bryan Health Art Committee. Valery holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Her work is included in private collections across the country and her sculpture Nebraska Wildflowers is permanently installed on the Bryan East Campus.
