Excited to share a preprint from my postdoc work in @seth_shipman’s lab! We developed Detectrons — programmable biosensors that convert RNA signals into stable DNA barcodes inside living cells, enabling multiplexed RNA sensing. 🧵👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.648…

Eugene Koonin @AudeBer discuss why some bacterial immune systems have no counterparts in eukaryotes, whereas a small subset of comparatively rare systems was co-opted as key elements of eukaryotic innate immunity 🦠🛡️🧍🏽‍♀️

Yup: Conceptual and methodological flaws undermine claims of a link between the gut microbiome and autism cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

🚨New preprint out! We present a foundational genomic resource of human gut microbiome viruses. It delivers high-quality, deeply curated data spanning taxonomy, predicted hosts, structures, and functions, providing a reference for gut virome research (1/8) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@markowenmartin @Symbionticism @firstwefeast The topic of holobiont/evolutionary hologenomics is spicy as is, so naturally we need this. He is a great public speaker.

I think we need to push very hard to get @Symbionticism on “Hot Ones” to discuss microbiome science while eating progressively hotter wings. @firstwefeast

What if we could use precision #microbiome editing in vivo to turn harmful gut microbes into allies against disease? We did it using #CRISPR Transposon & mobilome engineering. With @harriswangnyc and Tyler Perdue. In @natBME 👉 nature.com/articles/s4155… 👉 innovativegenomics.org/news/carlotta-…

1/16 New pre-print from the Sternberg Lab! We uncover how temperate phages can use RNA-guided transcription factors to remodel the flagellar composition of their bacterial host and enhance their fitness. Find the preprint and full story here: tinyurl.com/mshwjd77

Our @MolecularCell Spotlight on the Hailong anti-phage system from the Kranzusch lab! This defense uses "ssDNA tripwires" to trigger toxic ion channels 🧬⚡☠️ Fun write with Johannes Kühn!!

🧫 Save the Date! We’re excited to announce an upcoming scientific seminar organised by our Early Career Team, with a spotlight on host–microbe crosstalk. Join us for a day of cutting-edge insights, discussion, and networking! Registration is open now - cphgut.ku.dk/events/seminar…

Happy to share that our study on gut microbiome associations with colorectal cancer (CRC) is out in @NatureMedicine! (doi.org/10.1038/s41591…).

OPEN CALL for PhD positions in our lab through the @semm_it program: 1️⃣ Microbiome signatures of early on-set colorectal cancer 2️⃣ High-resolution computational metagenomics for the study of human microbiome transmission More info: semm.it/education/open… Apply by June 9!

📣Free event about #microbes👏 #Ecology & Cocktails: Without microbes, animals can't do much🦠 By Professor Tom Gilbert followed by an ecology open #mic night🎤 and an interactive #art activity! May 15 at 18-24 @HusetKBH Read more 👇 huset.kk.dk/events/ecology… @GrundforskFond

Our new preprint, "Spatial constraints drive amylosome-mediated resistant starch degradation by Ruminococcus bromii in the human colon" is now on bioRxiv! Key findings in the thread below below biorxiv.org/content/10.110….

Our latest paper is out in science advances discussing cell division and morphogenesis control in S. aureus. Massive congratulations to Mariana and all of our other authors and collaborators!! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

A large-scale literature review to which I contributed was recently published in Nature Medicine!! "Clinical translation of microbiome research." nature.com/articles/s4159…

If you are interested in phage satellites, we hope you'll enjoy this. Fun collaboration with the Rocha, Seed, Bikard, and Chen labs! nature.com/articles/s4157…

I have been teaching classes on the gut #microbiome for almost 20 years and always struggled to have a good book to recommend. Finally there is one. Fergus Shanahan's "Fast Facts: The Gut Microbiome" provides expert insight, is brilliant, and it is free. doi.org/10.1159/isbn.9…

Thrilled to share our review (with @MireiaVallesc and @nsegata) on "Human microbiome acquisition and transmission" just published @NatureRevMicro

Please spread the word! We have an opening in the Atkinson lab for a post-doc with a focus on molecular mechanisms of microbial immune systems. Can be a fully computational or experimental or hybrid project. Read more & apply here: lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/jo… #phage #Bioinformatics
