A proud day on Capitol Hill featuring @UFAstraeus Jamie Foster at @NASAScience_ Congressional Showcase. Do you know how to grow food on the Moon? Dr. Foster answered tough (and fascinating!) questions. #IgnitingDiscovery #Astraeus
A great advocacy day with @UF_IFAS stakeholder delegates to the @APLU_News CARET conference! These leaders’ Florida-based industries know the benefit of @USDA_NIFA supported research, facilities, and extension programs. Thanks @FFAAtweets, #GladesCropCare, and #FNGLA

Inspiring to meet @ufstudentgov leaders and hear what moves them, from campus safety to college affordability.
I know they'll do great things! #GoGators

We must continue to combat antisemitism against Jewish students as threats on college campuses around the country have skyrocketed. I met with the @UF Student Government to discuss their efforts back home.

We welcomed student leaders from @ufstudentgov to discuss their priorities like Pell grants, campus safety, and climate.
We appreciate them sharing their perspective on issues that matter to young Floridians. The future is bright!
Lots of Gator Pride on the Hill today! @UF_Federal Spring interns Sarah Stack @UFJSchool and Caitlin Remmert @UF_CLAS talk with @RepKatCammack about the best school in the nation! #StudentSuccess #GoGators @GrahamCenter

Federally funded scientific research fuels breakthroughs in healthcare that benefit us all.
That’s why @NIH is awarding @UFlorida’s @UFCTSI with a grant to continue translating discoveries into real-world solutions that improve Americans’ health.

Great discussion with Nvidia co-founder Chris Malachowsky and his team along with the University of Florida on the importance of AI computing resources for academic research and AI education. With UF Provost Dr. Joe Glover representing Florida’s 3rd Congressional District, we highlighted how partnerships—like Nvidia’s work with UF—are helping expand AI opportunities in our state and beyond. With innovation, workforce development & national defense in mind, we are working on something big that is going to be transformational. Stay tuned! 🐊🇺🇸💪🏼

Fresh off of the @GatorsMBK National Championship win, I got to hear from Bennett Andersen, who also won an Elite 90 award for his academic success!
These @FloridaGators student-athletes work so hard on and off the court. #GoGators 🐊
Great conversation on the future of college athletics with impressive Florida women leaders - @SenAshleyMoody, @GatorsSoccer @sambbohon, @Kennedymart18 #GoGators
Florida is full of amazing athletes who are among the best in the nation and @Kennedymart18 is no exception. This season, she led @GatorsVB's total kills and was ranked as the national leader in points per set.
It's an honor to represent her and the rest of the Gator nation in the U.S. Senate!
