Twelve Stony Brook graduate students took part in Stony Brook University’s annual Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition on March 28
a doctoral candidate in biomedical engineering
having withstood competition that was at once enthusiastic
3MT is an opportunity for Stony Brook graduate students to present their dissertation research findings to a general audience in three minutes with only one PowerPoint slide
The goal of 3MT — an academic research communication competition developed by The University of Queensland (UQ)
Australia — is for students to engage all their communication skills to make their research vivid and engaging while emphasizing its key point without jargon
Audience members learn what students in master’s and doctoral programs are studying and gain insight into the future of research
design and innovation in a variety of disciplines
Students also craft their talks as part of a cohort, undergoing coaching from research communication experts grounded in techniques from the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science
“This is one of my very favorite days of the year,” said Celia Marshik, dean of The Graduate School
in her opening remarks for Stony Brook’s tenth 3MT competition
“It’s always such a joy to hear about the amazing research that our graduate students and postdocs are doing on this campus
I want to especially say thank you to those who have worked so hard to put their work into common parlance for those of us who are not in the field.”
Marshik recalled previous presentations representing a wide range of cross-campus disciplines
“Some of my favorite presentations have been by people in civil engineering and other disciplines that are quite far from my own training,” she said
“And that’s one of the things that I really love about this day is learning about and feeling like I genuinely understand the work it is that you all do.”
Abasolo’s winning presentation — “Growing Bones: Body Not Included” — described her research in tissue engineering
which she described as “an exciting and crucial field for the future of medicine.”
“I’ve always been fascinated by how the body heals and the potential of regenerative medicine to restore lost function,” she said
I became particularly drawn to organoid development due to the possibilities of using organoids as diagnostic platforms and therapeutic constructs
Working on a bone organoid (artificial bone tissue) platform has been an incredible opportunity that aligns with my interests for regenerative medicine.”
Abasolo hopes to work as an industry scientist/engineer in regenerative medicine to help translate tissue engineering research into real-world therapies
“I feel very proud to have won,” she said
“Having the opportunity to share my work and seeing the audience excited about it was an amazing experience
It was an honor to go through this journey with such talented students and hear about their incredible research.”
Abasolo was also named the People’s Choice winner as chosen by attendees
was named runner-up for her presentation titled “Shrinking Brain’s Superheroes.”
“3MT was an exhilarating experience and I’m overjoyed to have placed second in such a tough competition,” said Azmi
“I looked forward to participating in this even before I started grad school
The best part was seeing the audience engage with my talk — watching their reactions and having a couple of them come up afterwards with questions
It was an honor to share my work and spark curiosity in others.”
Antonio Novaes, a postdoctoral associate in the Agrawal Lab in the Renaissance School of Medicine’s Division of Nephrology and Hypertension
won the Postdoc Spotlight part of the event
“When they announced my name as the winner
“It was an incredibly rewarding experience
It reinforced my belief in my abilities and gave me a sense of confidence and a reminder that with effort and dedication
I’m capable of achieving more than I imagined
it was a privilege to share the stage and all the process with such incredible researchers.”
“It’s great to have the opportunities to tell an authentic and meaningful story about what it is you do,” said Carl Lejuez
Stony Brook’s executive vice president and provost
“All of us have to ask ourselves if we are taking advantage of those opportunities
I encourage you to not think of those as frustrating moments where someone is not hearing you
but as an opportunity to further develop your ability to talk at multiple levels about what you do and never miss an opportunity to be straightforward and get to the point in a way where you’re building connection as opposed to building separation
This event is a great example of an opportunity to do that.”
“Seeing the graduate students and postdocs transform their three-minute talks through the coaching process for 3MT and the Postdoc Spotlight is the highlight of my year,” said Molly Lotz
director of research training initiatives at the Graduate School
“All of the speakers did a phenomenal job of distilling their research findings and explaining their impact to a general audience
and the range of disciplines represented during the event made for a day full of learning about new discoveries happening across Stony Brook
the support and encouragement the speakers give each other during the coaching and competition is truly a joy to behold.”

ONE 169: Malykhin vs. Reug Reug is less than one month away
and the blockbuster card just added a featherweight Muay Thai matchup between two of the organization’s most dynamic and entertaining athletes
Fans are in for a treat when creative American striker Eddie “Silky Smooth” Abasolo squares off with Algerian knockout artist Mohamed “The Eagle” Younes Rabah in U.S. primetime on Friday, November 8, live from the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
View this post on Instagram A post shared by ONE Championship (@onechampionship)
Long hailed as one of America’s top Muay Thai talents
Abasolo has showcased his unique and unpredictable brand of striking across four thrilling bouts in ONE
While the 37-year-old has struggled to win consistently in the world’s largest martial arts organization, compiling a 1-3 record, his unforgettable battles against decorated Thai veteran Sitthichai “Killer Kid” Sitsongpeenong and fellow American star Luke “The Chef” Lessei proved he belongs among the best of the best.
View this post on Instagram A post shared by ONE Championship (@onechampionship)
Those narrow but wildly captivating decision losses, coupled with his highlight-reel knockout of Denmark’s Niclas Larsen, have garnered “Silky Smooth” plenty of supporters and established him as an all-action fan favorite.
Abasolo is now undoubtedly hungry for his second win in ONE – just like his opponent.
View this post on Instagram A post shared by ONE Championship (@onechampionship)
Rabah compiled an impeccable 13-0 professional record before making his promotional debut last December at ONE Fight Night 17
That night, he stunned the Muay Thai world with a shocking first-round knockout of former ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Title challenger Saemapetch Fairtex
announcing his presence on the global stage in spectacular fashion
“The Eagle” would lose a rematch against the Thai in February
but he’s ready to once again put his electrifying approach to striking on full display
Tall and lanky for the featherweight division
the Algerian is an aggressive long-range striker who strings together ruthless punch-kick combinations and can fight at an incredibly high tempo
That crowd-pleasing style should make for an intriguing clash against the “Silky Smooth” offerings of Abasolo
giving striking enthusiasts plenty to look forward to on November 8

Bachelor alum Nick Viall came to former Bachelorette star Rachel Lindsay’s defense against her ex Bryan Abasolo
The former couple filed for divorce in January after four years of marriage
Nick Viall believes a rose by Bryan Abasolo’s name doesn’t smell too sweet
Amid Rachel Lindsay’s divorce from the former Bachelorette contestant after four years of marriage
the podcast host is airing out his grievances toward Abasolo
“It’s getting messy,” Viall said on the Aug. 6 episode of The Viall Files
“I didn’t really want to talk about this out of respect for my friend Rachel
And the 43-year-old—who tied the knot with Natalie Joy in April—continued to recount his opinion on the former couple’s divorce proceedings
he decided he wanted to go after his ex-wife
Viall—who first met Lindsay when she competed on his season of The Bachelor in 2017—specifically mentioned the recent court order, which E! News confirmed in July
that binds Lindsay to pay the chiropractor over $13,000 per month in spousal support
as well as $15,000 for legal fees and an additional $5,000 in forensic expert expenses
has simply taken advantage of the very outdated legal system and laws around marriage
“But it doesn’t stop me from thinking something about you.”
Beyond the legal aspect of Lindsay’s divorce, the Special Forces: World's Toughest Test alum also criticized Abasolo’s public remarks on Lindsay and their relationship
“She has definitely tried to keep quiet,” he added
“It seems like his side has been leaking more and more and trying to make her look bad
It’s so gross—have some respect for yourself and your ex wife.”
Lindsay has remained relatively tight-lipped on the specifics of her breakup with Abasolo
but she did detail how she’s keeping herself feeling good amid the tribulation
“My family has come out to see me, I've gone to see my family,” she explained to E! News in June
It was really good to be around my family and happier times
I'm just allowing people and experiences to heal me.”

The Bachelorette's Rachel Lindsay must pay ex Bryan Abasolo $13,000 a month in spousal support after she put in a request to deny his claim
A decision has been made in Rachel Lindsay's ongoing divorce battle with Bryan Abasolo
The Bachelor Nation alum has been ordered by a judge to pay her estranged husband $13,257 per month in spousal support
And while the court has put off determining whether Lindsay will need to make retroactive payments
she will need to send Abasolo $15,000 for his attorney fees and an additional $5,000 for forensic expert expenses
News reached out to Lindsay's and Abasolo's lawyers for comment but has not heard back
The spousal support decision comes less than a month after Lindsay accused the chiropractor of misrepresenting his income in his request by claiming his annual salary was $16,000
"Bryan claims to earn so little income that if he worked a 40 hour week and was paid minimum wage in Los Angeles County," the 39-year-old said in a June 26 filing obtained by People
"he would more than double his reported earnings."
Noting that his reported salary amounted to "less than he would [earn] if he worked at McDonalds," Lindsay went on to argue that Abasolo was also inflating his expenses
considering he allegedly still lives in the home she purchased
and costs to care for our pets...on Bryan's behalf," she explained in the document
"while he refuses to vacate my home."
shared that the split was born out of the realization that "sometimes loving yourself and your partner means you must let go."
Lindsay later echoed the 44-year-old's message that the breakup was amicable
though she's since confessed that "the way it was filed was not."
"I'm doing what's best for me, and that's a happy ending," she said during a June 6 appearance on the Hidden Gems podcast

Rachel Lindsay argued that ex Bryan Abasolo's spousal support request should be denied
calling out his claim that he earns $16,000 a year
Rachel Lindsay isn't convinced she's getting the truth
"Bryan claims to earn so little income that if he worked a 40 hour week and was paid minimum wage in Los Angeles County," Lindsay said in her June 26 filing
In addition, the 39-year-old argued that she should not have to pay the proposed $75,000 for Abasalo's legal fees for their ongoing divorce battle as he is not actually "in need" of those funds
"His requests for spousal support and $75,000 in professional fees are not supported by competent evidence," Lindsay explained in the document
"and far exceed the actual marital lifestyle and his need."
Noting that a $16,000 salary amounts to "less than he would [earn] if he worked at McDonalds," Lindsay emphasized that Abasalo
has the "ability to generate income," and as a result
has the opportunity to "support himself."
And that's not the only part of his request that Lindsay took issue with
She also claimed in the filing that Abasalo "appears to be inflating his expenses," considering he allegedly "refuses to vacate" the home she purchased
and costs to care for our pets...on Bryan's behalf," Lindsay explained in the document
News reached out to Abasalo's lawyer for comment on the accusations but has not heard back
"sometimes loving yourself and your partner means you must let go."
Lindsay seconded that the breakup was amicable but admitted
"I'm doing what's best for me, and that's a happy ending," she said of their ongoing divorce during a June 6 appearance on the Hidden Gems podcast
but it's a happy ending because it's what I want."
