Huge congrats to Joana Serpa on defending her MSc thesis! 🎓👏 Her research dives deep into how the Mediterranean diet shapes gut microbiota and may influence gut adenomas. Excited to see what’s next for her! 🌟 #NutritionScience #GutHealth #ClinicalNutrition #ProudMentor @gimmfoundation.bsky.social

March is the Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. At GIMM CARE, Ana Santos Almeida, José Azevedo @champalimaudf.bsky.social, Luís Costa & André Mansinho @ Hospital de Santa Maria, join efforts to create a new microbiome-based diagnostic test for colorectal cancer. Find more: shorturl.at/nwElQ

The impact of a non-industrialized ("Restore") diet plus a key microbe on improving cardiometaboiic health markers and reducing body-wide inflammation, from a randomized trial www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... @cellpress.bsky.social open-access

We’re thrilled that our first paper on the Human Microbiome Compendium, an integrated dataset of over 168,000 uniformly processed human gut microbiome samples, is officially out today in Cell! @richabdill.com @blekhman.bsky.social www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

We're starting 2025 with exciting news: 2 clinical trials are now registered! GUTBIOME-PT ➡️ clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT067... CARE-CRC ➡️ clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT067... #ClinicalTrials #ColorectalCancer #MicrobiomeResearch #GutHealth

We have a wonderful program lined up for #EACR2025 in beautiful #Lisbon 🤩 All of us at #EACR are looking forward to see you in June! #cancer #research 🧪⚕️ 2025.eacr.org @helloeacr.bsky.social

Last few days to apply 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Thrilled to see that @gimmfoundation.bsky.social joined Bluesky 🦋

🎉Huge congrats to @alexmsalmeida.bsky.social ‘s team on this fantastic publication! Honoured to have made a (tiny) contribution to our *first* work as collaborators. Here’s to many more 🥂🚀 @camvetschool.bsky.social @naturemicrobiol.bsky.social

Interested in the ecological dynamics of Enterobacteriaceae across populations? Check out our new study 🧬

OUT NOW - Ecological dynamics of Enterobacteriaceae in the human gut microbiome across global populations www.nature.com/articles/s41...

It’s official: The Microbiology Society is on Bluesky!

I'm putting together a Microbial Bioinformatics starter pack to help get everyone connected in our community. Let me know if there are any bluesky users to be added and share so that twitter refugees can tune back in to the fantastic world microbes go.bsky.app/3ezLo7e

Deadline for applying is Jan 22!

🚨 We’re hiring! Lab Manager wanted! Join our team at the Microbiome in Health & Disease Lab, dedicated to leveraging the #microbiome to revolutionise #ColorectalCancer prevention & treatment. 🌟 Apply now: gimm.pt/jobs/lab-man... Stay tuned—research positions coming soon! #NewPI

You want to learn about microbiology from a fantastic lineup of speakers on a beautiful Greek island? PhD students apply now for the @EMBO | @FEBSnews Lecture Course The New Microbiology! Registration: 1 Apr 2025 Course: 03 – 11 Sep 2025 | Spetses, Greece meetings.embo.org/event/25-new...

🚨 New review in @natrevgastrohep.bsky.social: Should you take probiotics with antibiotics? www.nature.com/articles/s41... Bottom line: current evidence does not support the common perception that probiotics can facilitate the gut microbiome's recovery from antibiotics. BUT! 1/🧵

🚨 New preprint!! How can antibiotic-resistant bacteria increase in abundance in the human gut microbiome, even without antibiotics? 🧐 We show that strain-specific ecological interactions are key to understanding resistance dynamics in microbial communities. 🧵👇 1/5 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Given the complexity of our diets, its really tricky to link a specific food group with specific gut microbiota. @cibiocm.bsky.social & co show that coffee is associated with increased Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus. Coffee can also boost its growth in vitro! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Today we publish an (in my opinion) important paper in @naturemicrobiol.bsky.social 🍾 showing that gut physiology and environment are factors explaining substantial variations in human gut #microbiome composition and #metabolism🦠 Fantastic work Procházková et al. 👏 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I am hiring a Research Assistant microbiologist! We are new, expanding research group in the School of Microbiology, UCC and APC Microbiome Ireland in Cork studying anaerobic gut bacteria. Deadline for applications 29th November. Apply here: ore.ucc.ie Job ID: 081111
