Honoured to to be part of this Future of Hepatology session at @easlnews.bsky.social #EASL2025, discussing the promise of #microbiome related therapies in #PSC #cholestatic liver disease - where have we come since the original #FMT #PSC pilot study by @DrAllegrettiIBD? doi.org/10.14309/ajg...

📘 What could nephrology look like in 2050? This article for the Future Healthcare Journal was fun to write! — here’s a 🧵 of what might be coming next in kidney care: shorturl.at/A18zK

The National Genomics Education Programme have launched #GeNotes collection specifically for #Genomics cases in your practice @britsocgastro.bsky.social www.bsg.org.uk/news/new-nat...

1. You feel powerless? Don’t know what you can do to resist the rise of fascism? Here is an answer: Good Things. Fascism inflicts pain and harm as a matter of doctrine. Kindness, care and conviviality defend us from it. The more we build community, the less it can take root. 🧵

A great first day at the #BSG #GutMicrobiome event, covering everything from early life @halllab.bsky.social, to #liver @debbieshawcross.bsky.social, to #cancer @jameskinross.bsky.social, and culminating in a tour de force on #IBD and the #microbiome in clinical practice from Prof Harry Sokol

🚨 We're hiring! 🚨 The Chain Florey Transition-To-Independence Fellowship Scheme is open for applications! We have 3 positions available: 2 generic and 1 cardiology specific. If you're a clinician scientist this is your chance to join the Chain Florey program! Don't miss out—apply now! 💼👇

Wondering if your patient with small bowel inflammation has Crohn's vs intestinal TB? Summarize all of your data with this website to get a probability. Add new (projected) test results to see how new results would change the estimate. #IBD www.pathology.med.umich.edu/shiny/tbcroh...

Really enjoyed working on this review for Frontline Gastroenterology. How do anti-IL23 therapies work? What’s the evidence for their use in IBD? And is there any guidance on how we should position them in the treatment landscape? fg.bmj.com/content/earl...

Pleased that #FARGO - a randomised, multicentre, placebo-controlled phase IIa trial of #FMT to treat #PSC - is running and recruiting. Have a look at the protocol paper out now in #BMJOpen: doi.org/10.1136/bmjo... @pscsupport.bsky.social @cholestasisdoc.bsky.social

What is inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and how can a gene desert help us to understand its causes and potential future treatments? 🧬🧪 Hear the Crick's James Lee sharing his insights in the first in our series of Crick Crash Courses. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcc8...

New work on #tuft cells, rare guardians of our #gut against invaders. How they work is not known. We show that intestinal tuft types 1&2 are sequentially expressed phenotypes during differentiation. And…we can now generate mature immune-related tuft-2’s in #organoids for more 🔬🧫🧬🔥 shorturl.at/EImjA

We know everything about IL-33 already, right? No! In fact we know very little about IL-33 in the colonic epithelium Our recent paper finds IL-33 is highly enriched in colonic stem cells suggesting an immunoregulatory role for this niche in injury🧵 www.mucosalimmunology.org/article/S193...

#LocationLocationLocation! Baghdadi, Kim &co show @science.org that intestinal stem cells #ISCs located at the bottom of the crypts sense a more rigid environment & activate PIEZO to tune their proliferation/differentiation maintaining gut physiology! doi.org/10.1126/scie...

#immunosky The power of spatial information! ILC2s specifically in the middle of the colon express microbiota-induced genes that are important for the structural adaptation of this part of the gut. Loads of spatial data across different states (homeostasis vs inflammation) for the community.

👨‍🔬🎉Kicking off my bluesky presence by posting our lab's achievement! Our lab's first study is now out in Cell ! We show that IFN-λ induces ZBP1/CASP-8/GSDMC-dependent pyroptosis in gut epithelial cells impairing tissue repair post-colitis.#IBD #Immunology 🧵https://authors.elsevier.com/a/1k2OAL7PXqSL5

Happy to share the work from my residency at #Charite available as pre-proof version in #Gastroenterology. We identify Ki67+ memory CD4+ T cells as robust blood-based predictor for non-response to #vedolizumab (anti-integrin a4b7) in #IBD patients before therapy. doi.org/10.1053/j.ga...

Very proud of this one. Sarah Hamoudi, PhD student in the lab, developed autologous cocultures between mucosal T cells and epithelial organoids from control or from patients with Crohn's disease. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
