Check out Ken Liu's (@ironicbonding) paper on enzyme-based chemical exposure 'contact tracing' for #exposomics out today! academic.oup.com/exposome/advan…

@mingxunwang @Pdorrestein1 @MetaboLights @GNPS_UCSD @MetabolomicsWB @EmoryCbl Thanks for showing interest in our work! I wasn't aware of MASST or GNPS at the time, but now see how powerful it can be used to aid chemical discovery/confirmation. I'll be sure to use it in the future!

@Pdorrestein1 @MetaboLights @GNPS_UCSD @MetabolomicsWB @ironicbonding @EmoryCbl

Very cool paper! nature.com/articles/s4225… I took the MS/MS from their SI and MASST-ed it. It's in human diet studies, animal, immune stimulated human cell data sets from @MetaboLights @GNPS_UCSD and @MetabolomicsWB but not in 10,000+ cultured microbe data. gnps.ucsd.edu/ProteoSAFe/res…

If a tree falls in the forest, and no one posts about it on social media, did it really fall?

@XinHuPhD maybe we should start calling our science...next generation science or science from the future.

@ironicbonding Because they are not common enough yet

why do they keep calling it next generation sequencing (NGS)? its been next generation for 10+ years now...Dippin' dots was ice cream from the future in 1995 and its still ice cream from the future today? WHY

News & Views: A study in @Nature shows that, in the fruit fly, a time-restricted feeding schedule that includes prolonged periods of overnight fasting extends healthy lifespan. (Subscribers only) go.nature.com/3D4UYJF

How do you compliment a metabolomics data set?  By telling it what nice features it has. tmblr.co/ZkCBhs1h3vC96

Here's a reminder on #InternationalCoffeeDay: It's OK to take a (coffee) break. ☕ "It’s ... helpful to have a venue to share the day-to-day ups and downs of life as a grad student," a #PhD student wrote in this 2019 #ScienceWorkingLife. fcld.ly/tgi39pr

.@realJeffCollins, Eric Ortlund, @trzeek et al @EmoryUniversity use immunometabolic phenotyping to show that metabolic remodeling of the TCA cycle is closely associated with pathologic inflammatory signaling in humans with TB disease. 👀buff.ly/2ZzTKrk

How much does food influence how we smell?

How would one go about isotopically labeling a fruit, vegetable, an entire plant, lab meat?

@EmoryCbl @NatureComms @CMarsit @SmithMrs0286 @GaryWMiller3 @EmoryHERCULES More people should be exposed to this article. I hope it persists and the knowledge bioaccumulates.

HAPPY to see our Xin Hu, PhD in @NatureComms this morning!🎉 This workflow harnesses the power of GC-MS for measuring exposures to persistent chemicals that bioaccumulate over a lifespan and discovering their links to disease! Congrats to all involved! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Another day - another paper from Ken Liu! Ken contributed to this paper highlighting the need for analytical chemists and microbiologists to join forces in illuminating the dark matter of the microbial metabolome! 🔬🧪 journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mS…

@EmoryCbl @EddieTMorgan @NatureComms @trzeek @colleenkraftmd @GaryWMiller3 i hope people are exposed to this article!

BIG CONGRATS to our Ken Liu, PhD and collaborators in @EddieTMorgan's lab on their new @NatureComms paper! 🎉 They developed methods to "contact trace" chemical exposures by detecting metabolic products generated by human enzymes. nature.com/articles/s4146…
