Shannon Holliday,
Associate Professor of Orthodontics and Anatomy & Cell Biology
Shannon Holliday is an Associate Professor of Orthodontics and Anatomy & Cell Biology at the University of Florida. He received his B.S. in Biology from West Virginia Tech, and a PhD in Cell Biology from the Florida State University focused on the crawling motility of nematode sperm. He continued his training as a postdoctoral fellow at the NIH in the lab of Edward D. Korn studying regulation of actin polymerization. During a second postdoc at Washington University in St Louis, he was introduced to osteoclasts and the vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) in the laboratory of Stephen L. Gluck. He focused on the V-ATPase and the cytoskeleton in osteoclasts for many years. He became interested in extracellular vesicles (EVs) in 2013, and his group published one of the first articles on regulatory EVs released by osteoclasts in 2016. He is currently seeking strategies to develop new types of bone anabolic therapies based on EVs.
