New PDRA position with @knightjar.bsky.social @coytelab.bsky.social & me Community assembly processes in soil microbiomes with focus on bioinformatics and computational modelling of data from field and lab experiments www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai...

New research led by @karinaxavierlab.bsky.social at 🇵🇹 @gimmfoundation.bsky.social demonstrates that a harmless strain of 🦠 #Klebsiella – discovered by chance in 🧫 laboratory experiments – can eliminate #infections and reduce gut inflammation in mouse models of inflammatory bowel disease. #IBD

Great way to finish the year! Here showing that the amazing gut Microbiota Isolate - ARO112 can accelerate microbiota recovery after perturbations and protect against gut Inflammation. This work was possible given the hard and brilliant work of @vhrcabral.bsky.social and @aritaoliveira.bsky.social

Thrilled to share that our new paper is out now in @natcomms.nature.com 🎉 Huge congrats to @vhrcabral.bsky.social and @karinaxavierlab.bsky.social on this major work. We found that our Klebsiella ARO112 can break the antibiotic/inflammation cycle in an IBD model

Wrapping up the coolest Summer School on Host-Microbe Symbioses at @gimmfoundation.bsky.social Portugal! Over this course, I had 2min flash talks on my PhD work, presented 2 posters and designed group projects. Thank you @karinaxavierlab.bsky.social #Waldan Kwong and #Martin Blaser for the guidance.

Fresh from the press (from my brother Joao Xavier) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Big thanks to scientific writer Libera Lo Presti for this great little piece on our recent work exploring how proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and pH affect human gut microbes. Check it out here: go.nature.com/4lf6jNk

How the @embo.org postdoctoral fellowship helped me in developing my academic career... happy to see my profile featured on the EMBO website! www.embo.org/people/from-...

Congratulations, Edith Heard, former EMBL Director General! She was appointed a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George in the 2025 King’s Birthday Honours List in the UK 👏 #kingshonours www.embl.org/news/awards-...

Call for our new PhD program is open. Come join one of our labs at Gulbenkian Institute for Molecular Medicine - Lisbon-Oeiras, Portugal. Help us spread the word

Call for Group Leaders - Join us at GIMM, 7 days till the deadline!

1/46 Hey folks, we have a new paper out on the MuLTEE. Strap in and I’ll tell you the story of how this “little paper on polyploidy” turned into the most data rich paper our lab has produced, largely thanks to the leadership and work ethic of @kaitong25.bsky.social. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Great Microbiology meeting at the EMBL

Join our favorite microbiology meeting! Fantastic talks, poster sessions, new technologies, and all the hot areas of microbiology in a great environment - experts in cell & systems biology, microbiomes, environment & evolution, pathogenesis, phage & antibiotics DON’T MISS abstract deadline, April 1

Hi BlueSkyers! I'm an evolutionary biologist, microbiologist, entomologist, lover of nature, and long-time researcher on symbiosis. I'm realizing that BlueSky is useful and generally non-toxic so here I am (having quit Facebook in Jan 2017, and Twitter in Oct 2022).
