Ali Manning shared thisWhat an amazing experience to spotlight women in STEM. Thank you, Memphis Grizzlies Foundation, for the opportunity. Great meeting you, Arienne!Ali Manning shared thisOn this final day of Women's History Month, I have to thank my folks at The Memphis Grizzlies for inviting me to share the stage -- er, court? -- with a cohort of truly amazing women for the Spring 2026 Dream In Code STEM panel discussion last week. Helping students from Mitchell, Christian Brothers and KIPP see themselves in us and learn about our varied journeys -- both straight and squiggly lines -- into tech careers was an honor. Moments like this underscore the hard work that my colleagues and I from Google's Economic & Community Development Team are doing all over the world: building better for everyone so that they can secure their place in the digital economy. Developing robust and resilient communities, like Memphis Metro, is the work that gets us out of bed every morning. And it's actually pretty simple: we listen, we partner, we show up. Repeat. HUGE shouts to all involved for making this happen and for making it special: Jamal Boddie, Darreon Sawyers Glass, Alandas Dobbins, Ali Manning, ToNaya Pye, and Crystal Carpenter, MBA. We truly love to see it!

Ali Manning liked thisAli Manning liked thisI’m incredibly honored to have been invited by Dr. Danielle Webster, a distinguished professor at the University of Central Florida, to join her podcast, "Majors, Minors, & Maybe." This podcast is all about spotlighting unconventional career paths that people may never have considered. While she already knew I was a food scientist, she was particularly fascinated by the niche work I do in food safety. I’m so excited to share how food science opens up unique, impactful career opportunities. Please give the episode a listen, and explore the other amazing conversations on her podcast. I'm so excited for you all to hear it. https://lnkd.in/eQSN3MjW

Ali Manning liked thisAli Manning liked thisMY FIRST EVER TikTok CREATOR PARTNERSHIP…And it’s with Hulu 💌🥹 It still feels surreal to say that. More specifically, I worked with Hulu to promote their new hit reality TV series ‘Love Overboard’ produced by Unwell. The show was such a fun + engaging watch that I posted several recaps well beyond our 1 contractual post and that’s because it was a show that I would organically discuss with my audience. And on a personal note, I’m so proud of this partnership because it was a natural fit. There’s a reason why I’ve been producing TikTok content for five years without one paid ad. It had to feel right. Side note: As a former Disney employee who worked on the social team at ABC News, this was such a full circle moment. Cheers to more, xo #contentcreator #hulu #influencermarketing #socialmediamarketing

Ali Manning liked thisAli Manning liked thisIt’s hard to describe the joy it brings me to share the ADSA experience with my team. Watching them share their science, achieve successes in competitions, build their own networks, and find value in this community is one of the most fulfilling professional experiences I’ve had. Thank you, American Dairy Science Association (ADSA) for another fantastic meeting, #MQIP will see you next year in Raleigh!

A Bakery Application Review of Partially Hydrogenated Shortening Alternatives

investigated in cookie, cake and icing shortenings and in donut deep frying
applications. PHO shortenings have long been the preferred bakery and
frying shortening due to their stability, temperature working range,
functionality and commercial availability. A yearlong shelf life study of
various PHO alternatives (exploring both domestic and tropical
alternatives) compares the oxidative stability, application review and
texture analysis at 0 months, 6 months and 1 year. Palm oil is a common
alternative due to its saturated fatty acid profile—other alternatives
include interesterified (IE) liquid domestic oils (such as soybean and
canola) blended with fully hydrogenated soybean hard fat. IE blends allow
a variety of melting profile possibilities and, when combined with stable
high oleic soybean oil (HOSoy), can offer superior products similar to the
stability and functionality of PHO shortenings. -
