What regulates the impact of diet on #health and #longevity? The first two preprints from our collaboration with @jacksonlab and @Calico reveal surprising interactions between #diet, #genetics, and #microbiome in #aging. (1/12) biorxiv.org/content/10.110… biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Microbiome meets gene editing. Our director, Sue Lynch, @lynch_lab has joined forces with @doudna_lab and @BanfieldJill from @igisci at @UCBerkeley to manipulate the gut microbiome to treat and prevent childhood asthma. ucsf.edu/news/2023/06/4…

Looking for an exciting opportunity in a new @igisci and @doudna_lab initiative under the guidance of 2 exceptionally talented scientists @bradyfcress and @therubinlab? Pls apply! You will interface on diverse collab projects incl human translational studies w/ our lab.

@helenvuongphd @pipethero Congrats!!!!!

Absolutely ecstatic to be selected as a 2023 Sloan Research Fellow! Thank you to my amazing supporters including letter writers/mentors, Elaine Hsiao (@pipethero), Nicholas Brecha, Michael Carey, & Joe Neglia. Thank you Sloan Foundation! Congrats to fellow awardees! #SloanFellow

@Suzanne_Devkota @baym @implosian The best way to attract new readers 😂 I feel compelled to read the articles in that issue.

@baym @implosian OMG is this real? It’s all my Instagram dreams come true 😂

Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism coming in strong with cover art (h/t @implosian)

IgG-seq featured in this paper is a really cool method developed by @ivanvujk, please check it out! We hope this approach can help us better understand which gut microbes translocate across the mucosal barrier and activate systemic immune responses.

I am hiring. Join the #1 Forbes America's Best Large Employer. @ChildrensPhila @CHOP_Research @PCMicrobiome careers.chop.edu/job/Philadelph…

@timetolovetofu Same… are there any in Sydney?

I want a croffle

Beautiful color palette for agar art and science outreach activities now available on Etsy!

@km_tsui Clement, congratulations on your new role!

I have officially started working in National Centre for Infectious Diseases in Tan Tock Seng hospital Singapore #fungi #genomics #AMR #epidemiology

I'm thrilled to direct both Microbial Genomics & Microbial Culturing tech hubs at BCMM! Looking forward to advance microbiome-based innovations via integration of NGS with cell-based assays. We have a microbial strain library to facilitate this mission and are open to collabs!

@Suzanne_Devkota There were several food related Q’s in the quiz, are you surprised that I’m a macrophage 😆

I’m a memory B cell! What Type of Immune Cell are You? bit.ly/3dzRxiQ

@JoelBabdor That’s fantastic! Congrats

Hum... Looks like I landed an interview on my first faculty application!!! 😃 I wasn't ready for the news yet. Still processing 😁

New tools for the microbiome field! With @Suzanne_Devkota, we discuss the innovative work by @doudna_lab, @BanfieldLab and colleagues. Advances in CRISPR–Cas tools and bioinformatic pipelines enable community editing without prior strain isolation or engineering.

Bacterial motility: machinery and mechanisms Wadhwa & Berg review bacterial motility mechanisms and the current understanding of the molecular machines that enable bacteria to swim in aqueous media and move on solid surfaces rdcu.be/cx96x @NavishWadhwa @MCB_Harvard

Interested in Microbiome Therapeutics Development? Have a PhD? The Lynch Lab is now accepting applications for a postdoc position. Please RT. indeed.com/job/postdoctor…

All @UCSF trainees, staff, and faculty can apply for research funds via our Microbiome Research Program. Deadline for proposals is Sept. 28. More info and apply at tiny.ucsf.edu/EUSXsU.

Our inaugural @ucsfmicrobiome summer internship was a success😄The girls learned so much about early life nutrition x microbiome interactions within 4 weeks and performed experiments with high accuracy! Very proud to be part of their academic and career development. #womeninstem

@pipethero @Suzanne_Devkota Happy to help out and I look forward to future collaborations with @cao_bio at UCSF 😊

Big thanks to @Suzanne_Devkota and @ConnieWYHa for teaching us almost everything we know about B. wadsworthia. @Suzanne_Devkota's prior work showed that high fat diets increase B. wadsworthia via taurocholic acid & that B. wadsworthia induces Th1 cells. nature.com/articles/natur…

Excited to share this work by @cao_bio and colleagues @PingFan78765311 @geoffpronovost -- a fascinating example of how environmental factors interact synergistically to alter the gut microbiome and impair hippocampal function and cognitive behavior in mice. Short🧵:
