Come and meet us at #EESMicrobiome in Heidelberg! We are excited to share our research with you 🥳 1/3

Interested in how it all began? Check out our paper about the Estonian Microbiome Cohort! ➡️ www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The entire archive of CDC datasets can be found here. HUGE shoutout to data archivists- this work is important 👏🙌🏻 archive.org/details/2025...

Thank you to organizers of the Research Days of Institute of Biomedicine and Translational Medicine for inviting me to present our project on type 2 diabetes medications and the gut microbiome. I really appreciate the feedback and questions. Find out more from the preprint: doi.org/10.1101/2024...

Super proud of this paper on infant gut microbiome age coming from my lab. The paper has just been published with @springernature.bsky.social in @naturecomms.bsky.social. Read about it here: rdcu.be/d6cCw.

Thrilled to announce that Matthias Hülsmann's new perspective is now out in @naturemicrobiol.bsky.social! This exciting work is shaping how our group thinks about collective microbiome metabolism. Check it out! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

1/ Keen to share the story of my postdoc research out in @natureportfolio.bsky.social! We built a massive resource characterizing the spatial landscape of the gut—and yes, we dug deep into the biology too. If you’ve got a minute, let me walk you through the story. 🧵👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

More #NatureReviewsCancer updates 🚨 We recently launched a collection on the #microbiome in cancer. While its role is still debated, the collection presents a selection of articles from #SpringerNature journals to highlight our current understandings.🧫🦠 😀👉 bit.ly/48u8WFH

Your friends shape your microbiome — and so do their friends Analysis of nearly 2,000 people living in remote villages in Honduras reveals who’s spreading gut microorganisms to whom. www.nature.com/artic... 1/5

Results 10 yrs metagenomic sequencing for CNS infections www.nature.com/articles/s41... Impressive. Key take homes for me. 1) Time to result still long - addressable but a barrier currently. 2) 10% contamination. 3) Despite using cutting edge tests a "causative" organism found in only 15%.

Targeted protein evolution in the gut microbiome by diversity-generating retroelements www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Nice paper on diversity generating retroelements in the Bacteroides:

Reading: academic.oup.com/nar/advance-... The mOTUs online database provides web-accessible genomic context to taxonomic profiling of microbial communities

New paper from the lab out in Cell Systems. “Spatiotemporal dynamics during niche remodeling by super-colonizing microbiota in the mammalian gut” www.cell.com/cell-systems...

Incredible graphic - the myriad of ways that bacteria defend themselves against antibiotics. 14 resistance mechanisms, summarised by Idan Yelin & Roy Kishony in Cell www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Hot off the press: "Fecal microbial load is a major determinant of gut microbiome variation and a confounder for disease associations" www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... See below for @suguru-nishijima.bsky.social 's thread on the preprint! #microsky #microbiome

Excited to share our latest preprint on a novel computational tool to predict fecal microbial load solely from relative species profiles! Our study revealed that fecal microbial load is a substantial confounder in microbiome-disease association studies. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Bluesky, I want to share with you one of my favourite papers:

After editing, this very short letter to New Scientist is even shorter now. But I think it gets the point across! @faecalmatters.bsky.social

Your hitchhiker's guide to microbiome studies: journals.asm.org/doi/epub/10....

I'm new here, so I'll share our recent work here too 😁🧫 Using Tn-seq + live imaging in engineered airway organoids, we explored the fitness tradeoffs P. aeruginosa faces while growing and surviving antibiotic treatment on the mucosal surface. Check it out: www.nature.com/articles/s41... #MicroSky

Welcome all (new) followers! Besides our work on probes & biosensors I'd like to share what I know about #Rstats and #DataViz. So I composed a book on data visualization with R & ggplot2 (it's work in progress). Target audience = wet lab scientists. Link: joachimgoedhart.github.io/DataViz-prot...

[looking at Bluesky over the past 2 days] So this is what the Cambrian explosion must have felt like

Human xenobiotic metabolism proteins have full-length and split homologs in the gut microbiome https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.11.06.622278v1

Hello, Bluesky! I'm Annabel, a PhD student in the Tartu Microbiome group led by Prof. Elin Org at the University of Tartu (EE). I am interested in the long-term effects of medications on the gut microbiome and early-life microbiome development. I also like photography, sci-fi, and crocheting 🌿
