>95% have forever chemicals #PFAS in blood. PFAS are linked to cancer, infertility, dev & immune issues. We now have a tool to sharpen to get rid of this poison of the century from body! Our preprint on PFAS bioaccumulation by human gut bacteria! 🧵(1/8) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

BREAKING: Donald Trump just announced if he wins, he will lift sanctions on Russia and Iran. This is why Putin was paying millions to Republican influencers. He’s bought control of Trump’s party. Retweet so all Americans see this alarming announcement.

Israelsk proporsjonalitet: 1. De kaster sten - skyt dem med skarpe kuler! 2. Vi tror en Hamas kriger er på skolen sammen med 250 sivile - godkjent mål, slipp bomber. 3. Vi tror en Hamas kriger er pasient i en av de ambulansene - iverksett drapsdroner! nrk.no/urix/kvinnelig….

"Vitamin D regulates microbiome-dependent cancer immunity". An insightful example of the importance of small molecule-microbiome interactions. Glad to have had the opportunity to contribute to this landmark study by @giampazolias @ReiseSousaLab science.org/doi/full/10.11…

I just updated our Python toolbox for enumerating and sampling minimal pathways in metabolic (sub)networks. It is now faster and more reliable than ever. Check out mptool on GitLab (gitlab.com/csb.ethz/mptool) or run "pip install mptool" to install the latest version. @CSB_ETHZ

Glad for at norske styresmakter er tydelige: "Dette er nok et eksempel på de fullstendig uakseptable handlingene den palestinske befolkningen i Gaza er ofre for" Utenriksminister Espen Barth Eide. nrk.no/nyheter/eide-o…

If you are interested in genome-scale metabolic modeling and how to choose an optimization solver, I ran some benchmarks that might help... :) Just published in mSystems: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…

I wrote a blog post about scientific racism and the @AllofUsResearch figure illustrating their ancestry analysis. The post was inspired by a presentation of @DelaneyKSull at our lab DEI meeting organized by @NikhilaSwarna last week. liorpachter.wordpress.com/2024/02/26/all… cc @AllofUsCEO

Godt og tydelig fortalt av @TeteLidbom. Stå på! Betenkelig, men dessverre ikke overraskende, at myndighetspersoner ikke forstår rollen sin bedre. nrk.no/video/fe4786bc…

@kiran_r_patil Happy New Year!

Out now! @suneman, @germansave, and colleagues introduce an approach that creates embeddings of life-events in a single vector space, allowing them to predict different life-event outcomes. nature.com/articles/s4358… 👉rdcu.be/dtVdd

How to measure the true impact of interdisciplinary science? Our paper featured on the cover of PNAS (@PNASNews) introduces a network-based approach. PDF: barabasilab.com/science/public… Let's dive into the highlights! #ScienceOfScience 1/n

Excited to share our new paper, ‘Accelerating network layouts using graph neural networks’ just out in @NatureComms with @csabath95, @nimatabari, and @yuqirose: rdcu.be/c77wd NeuLay is a machine-learning framework to speed up network visualization. See thread:

Congratulations for Natalia Kakko and @arantas_ for great work, thanks to all co-authors including @merjaelisa ! Our work on synthetic growth regulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae for enhancing production is out: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Individualized (personalized) medicine has traditionally included gene-drug interactions (pharmacogenomics). Now add gut microbiome-drug interactions nature.com/articles/s4158… @NatureBiotech by @heinken_almut @ines_thiele and colleagues

Now published: Our computational analysis demonstrates non-linear dependence of exchange fluxes on medium metabolite concentrations and the non-instantaneous change in enzyme composition - not previously been accounted for in constraint-based analysis. doi.org/10.1371/journa…
