Excited to share our @cp-cellhostmicrobe.bsky.social led by Magda showing how Bif has co-evolved with different animal hosts 🐒🐭🐷🐦 Key takeaways: 🔹 Host ancestry + diet shape Bif evolution 🔹 Mammals enriched for carb-busting enzymes 🔹 Untapped diversity in non-human hosts = new probiotic potential

An analysis in Nature Ecology & Evolution shows that near-national-scale losses of bird diversity greatly exceed losses recorded at the local scale in Colombia, suggesting that extrapolations from local studies will severely underestimate biodiversity losses. go.nature.com/3HbRv3s 🧪

Excited to finally share results from my first post-doc @halllab.bsky.social 🫡 E.coli commonly occurs in infant gut microbiota, yet its role during healthy development has been disregarded. In our pre-print, we reveal its fundamental involvement in HMO-degradation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
