Gut-Brain axis: Gut microbial factors, including microbial networks and bidirectional host-microbe interactions, predict severity of multiple sclerosis. Check out our new paper in @NatureMicrobiol nature.com/articles/s4156….

Today we publish an (in my opinion) important paper in @NatureMicrobiol 🍾showing that gut physiology and environment are factors explaining substantial variations in human gut #microbiome composition and #metabolism🦠 Fantastic work @nicolaproch et al. 👏 nature.com/articles/s4156…

🎉 Super excited to announce that our study "Colibactin-driven colon cancer requires adhesin-mediated epithelial binding" is now published in Nature! Huge congratulations to first authors @MaudeJans and @magdalenakolata for their fantastic work! 1/6🧵🎉 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Over the moon to be named among the #50ScientistsThatInspire across diverse fields by @CellCellPress! A heartfelt thank you to my former and current lab members, mentors, collaborators, and friends—you are my daily inspiration! cell.com/news-do/50-ins…

Our lab is looking for a postdoc with interest and experience in mucosal immunology and gut microbiome: nature.com/naturecareers/…

Happy to have written a Preview (kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2… ) together with a graduate student in the lab, Elena Monzel @LIH_Luxembourg, of an excellent paper by @StrowigLab @MoualiYoussef in @cellhostmicrobe sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Bacterial small RNA makes a big impact for gut colonization Monzel & Desai @LIH_Luxembourg highlight work of @MoualiYoussef @StrowigLab IDing SrcF, sRNA from S. copri that promotes colonization by regulating bacterial degradation of dietary carbohydrates cell.com/cell-host-micr…

Very happy to share our latest work, out now @cellhostmicrobe: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… We show that apoptosis-dependent expansion of the Enterobacteriaceae delays intestinal recovery following chemotherapy. @EdinUni_IRR @edin_EID

This work started during my time with @kodiravi, who is an amazing mentor. The work evolved and blossomed into a wonderful international collaboration with @MDesai_Lab and @LarsVereecke who are fantastic collaborators. Huge thanks to the entire Anderson Lab and all co-authors!
