Delighted to be attending @acnporg.bsky.social next year through the global scholarship program! Such a wonderful initiative to enable early career researchers outside the US to participate in the meeting. Thank you for this generous opportunity! 🤝

Always great fun + rigorous scientific discussions @biopsylbp.bsky.social retreat 🧠

Thank you once again @elinevg.bsky.social and big congrats on this prestigious award! 🎉

As part of academischestichtingleuven.be, I started a #scicomm podcast 2 months ago: #KarakterCast! 🎙️ #KarakterCast is quickly becoming a platform for young researchers at KU Leuven to share their latest research findings. As the host, I'm incredibly thrilled to see it grow!

Thank you @ebbsociety.bsky.social for the this recognition! cherry-on-top after a phenomenal #ESC2025 in #Innsbruck last month! 🗻🧠

Super eventful last weekend in #Berlin: attended @dgnm.bsky.social, met new faces, caught up with colleagues, and got the chance to present first results from my collaboration with @neckellab.bsky.social 🧠🔬 Stay tuned for some cool findings!

G for generosity! Yes, please!

Our study @cellpress.bsky.social finds healthy Canadians that consume a non-industrialized-type #diet can modulate their #microbiome, boost beneficial metabolites and improve their health. In just 3 weeks: LDL cholesterol ↓17% fasting glucose ↓6% CRP ↓ 14% www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

Really cool to actually see how science changes teaching

Our new perspective on prebiotics and cognition in Advances in Nutrition. In this piece, led by @bdalile.bsky.social and ILSI Europe, we asked why given what we know about the #gutmicrobiota and the #gutbrainaxis, #prebiotics only show limited cognitive benefits? doi.org/10.1016/j.ad... 🧪🧠🦠
