Are you feeding your “Friend or Foe” present in your gut? Very interesting study how high fat diet favours one type of bacteria. A just 5 min podcast of the paper on Spotify and Apple podcast open.spotify.com/episode/7vNf...

Excited to share our new paper! We show how Bilophila wadsworthia uses clever metabolic tricks to thrive in the gut — with links to high-fat diet🦠🔬 📖 rdcu.be/eoI4o Published at @natcomms.nature.com with @springernature.com #Microbiome #GutHealth #Bilophila

🆕 How #Norfolk helped answer question of COVID-19 persistence🦠 With @nnuh.bsky.social & @jamespagethospital.bsky.social our researchers including @narbadlab.bsky.social & @qibsequencing.bsky.social have shown how long the virus persists in the saliva and faeces of infected people⤵️ buff.ly/D5q5c20

Excellent research talk at #MicroSoc2025 @microbiologysociety.org by @lizsayavedra.bsky.social of @quadraminstitute.bsky.social on how her pet bugs Bilophila can colonise your gut and make you ill.

🧪 Our new study on how long SARS-CoV-2 sticks around in stool and saliva is out now! We tracked shedding patterns during the pandemic to better understand transmission risks and variant effects. Read it here 👉 journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/... #COVID19 #microbiology #CoPSStudy

🆕 Vacancy! We're looking for a Microbiome and Health Human Studies Lead to oversee the design, implementation, and management of gut microbiome-based human studies. 💷 £44,500 to £55,000 🗓️ Apply by 21 February 2025 ➡️ https://buff.ly/3Cekv8x #ScienceJobs #Microbiome

I'm looking for a collaborator who can determine D/L ratios of aminoacids. I'm interested to use this for proteomes of ancient groundwater (10-100Ky, Pleistocene) to understand the relative age of the bacteria living there. Anyone known anyone? Let me know...

Our brand-new paper in #GutMicrobes reveals how Bilophila wadsworthia and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron interact in the gut, driving H₂S production & metabolic shifts with potential links to inflammation & disease. #GutHealth Check it out: doi.org/10.1080/1949...

Prof. Kevin Foster presented an engaging talk at the Annual Science Meeting @QuadramInstitute, featuring the interactive "Gut Wars" website . This platform offers a fun way to explore microbial battles in our gut. Check it out! oum.ox.ac.uk/bacterialworld/gutwars/ #MicrobeCompetition

Thrilled to share that my research on nitrogen fixation and sulfate-reducing bacteria was featured by the Royal Society of Biology during #BiologyWeek in October! 🎉🧬 Explore how these tiny microbes shape gut health and beyond: www.rsb.org.uk/get-involved... #Microbiology #GutHealth
