TODAY at #EESMicrobiome

Our scientific organisers opened ‘The human microbiome’ symposium by giving us a brief update on their most recent work 🦠 #EESMicrobiome 🔹Mani Arumugam, University of Copenhagen 🔹Ami Bhatt, Stanford University School of Medicine 🔹Peer Bork, EMBL Heidelberg 🔹Nicola Segata, University of Trento

NEXT WEEK we are at #EESMicrobiome in Heidelberg @events.embl.org Full program: www.embl.org/about/info/c... On Tuesday, 16 Sept. see you at Session 1 from 15:30 ✨Liviana Ricci will give a talk "Microbial strain transmission between infants in nurseries drives gut microbiome development" 1/3

On Wednesday, 17 Sept. from 16h don't miss Flash talk (ft) session 1 and Poster (p) session 1 and meet our lab members: ✨ @fackelmeister.bsky.social ✨ @vheidrich.bsky.social 2/3

Huge congrats to @seandreu.bsky.social and the whole team! 🥳 So glad to have been a part of this exciting work that focused on the links between gut #microbial #genetic variation at the #strain level and a whole slew of host #phenotypes and geography. Read more @cellpress.bsky.social! #metagenomics

In this study just published at npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, we collected dental swab samples from dogs to shed light on the hardly studied dog dental plaque microbiome (1/7)

Gut microbiome signatures of vegan, vegetarian and omnivore diets and associated health outcomes across 21,561 individuals "How humans can shape their own gut microbiomes, and by extension their health, directly through simple dietary choices. …" www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🌟New Year, New Resolutions!🌟 🌱As we kick off the year, many people take part in challenges like Veganuary, aiming to try out a plant-based diet. 📄Let’s dive into how different diets shape our gut health and the diversity of the microbiome based on a recent paper published by @cibiocm.bsky.social

#Diets affect the gut #microbiome, e.g. red #meat is a driver of #omnivore microbiomes linked to poor cardiometabolic #health, inflammatory bowel #disease, colorectal #cancer & low short-chain fatty acids; #vegan ones are linked to favorable markers: doi.org/10.1038/s415... #plant-based #nutrition

Du bist, was Du isst! Eine aktuelle Studie unterstreicht den Einfluss der Ernährung auf das Mikrobiom und unsere Gesundheit. Das Thema Ernährung (und viele andere präventive Maßnahmen) gehört noch viel stärker auf die gesundheitspolitische Agenden! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Curious how omnivore, vegetarian, and vegan diets shape the gut microbiome? @cibiocm.bsky.social @fackelmeister.bsky.social meta-analyzed 21,561 individuals and mapped diet-specific microbiome signatures linked to health. Plant-based diets show promising cardiometabolic benefits!

Starting the new year with a new paper out, led by @fackelmeister.bsky.social, check it out 👇

A study in Nature Microbiology suggests that consuming more healthy plant-based foods could increase the proportion of gut microbes that favour human health. The findings are based on an analysis of more than 21,000 vegans, vegetarians, and omnivores. https://go.nature.com/40kHGqN 🧪

Thank you for inviting us to write this Research Briefing! It was a lot of fun and a welcome change to write in what we hope is more widely accessible format! I always enjoy reading the "behind the paper" sections because it sheds light on the authors' insight that one doesn't usually have.

OUT NOW - Gut microbiome signatures of vegan, vegetarian and omnivore diets and associated health outcomes across 21,561 individuals @cibiocm.bsky.social @fackelmeister.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🧵 How does being a #vegan, #vegetarian or omnivore impact your gut #microbiome? 🥦 Find out in our new paper on gut microbiome signatures of vegan, vegetarian & omnivore diets & associated health outcomes across 21,561 individuals in @naturemicrobiol.bsky.social!🎉 1/10 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The gut microbiome signature from different diets in 20,000 individuals. Red meat intake correlated with reduced cardiometabolic health; the opposite for plant-based foods or in omnivores with enriched plant-based intake www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Hi Bluesky community! 👋 Are you looking forward to 2025 as much as we are? 👀 We just updated our 2025 Annual Poster to include even more events for you to join, so go and have a look! ➡️ s.embl.org/poster-bl #EMBLEvents #molecularbiology #lifesciencetraining

The Finish publication forum downgrades almost all MDPI and Frontiers Journals to 0 from the beginning of 2025. These Journals are not considered as properly peer reviewed trustworthy scientific journals. julkaisufoorumi.fi/en/news/chan...

New platform, new beginnings! Here, we're going to have some fun talking about #science, sharing science news & celebrating scientific contributions! The #microbes in our poo will be center-stage with copious amounts of #microplastics added to the mix 💩 I hope you'll join me on this new adventure!
