I am excited to share our preprint! we use synthetic human gut communities to reveal crucial ecosystem-level dynamics that drive major gut microbiota signatures. Thanks to the support of @MoualiYoussef and Strowig lab biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I'm thrilled to share our latest manuscript, published in @Nature!! ➡️ doi.org/10.1038/s415... We analyzed data from over 34,000 participants from UK and US, revealing strong associations between specific gut bacteria and markers of cardiometabolic health and dietary habits.

Exciting new #GutMicrobiome study with over 30,000 participants! @fasnicar & team link microbes to metabolic health markers & alter their abundance with diet interventions, teaming up with @timspector's ZOE app + microbiome testing. These big datasets are what we need! @Nature

Great talks today at #EESMicrobiome. @embl @embo Congrats on the preprint @CarolineSTawk!

New paper! Combining epidemiology and experiments uncovers surprising drug-host-microbiome-pathogen interactions. Congrats @Aman_Kr25 @RobynTamblyn and the rest of the team. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Thrilled to share that my postdoc paper is finally out today in @Nature. Very thankful to my mentor Andy @Goodman_lab and all the collaborators including @RobynTamblyn.

@Aman_Kr25 @Nature @Goodman_lab @RobynTamblyn Congratulations Aman!!! It's so great to see all the hard work you put in rewarded in this outstanding paper!

The unfolding drama between neighboring bacteria: @Goodman_lab ID mechanism used by human gut commensals to antagonize related bacteria. Secreted effector Bte1 alters the protein-folding machinery of targeted cells, causing substrate aggregation & toxicity cell.com/cell-host-micr…

Small RNA in bacterial colonization @MoualiYoussef @StrowigLab characterize RNA landscape of Segatella copri. ID small RNA regulator essential for colonization & whose expression is regulated by metabolism of dietary components by S. copri cell.com/cell-host-micr…

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…

Segatella copri ist ein weitverbreitetes #Darmbakterium, aber noch relativ wenig erforscht. Eine Studie von @StrowigLab, @MoualiYoussef in Kooperation mit @JoergLab identifiziert jetzt eine small #RNA, die eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Besiedelung spielt. helmholtz-hzi.de/media-center/n…

Just like a musician needs the right sheet music to play beautifully, a gut bacterium needs a specific signal to flourish. @MoualiYoussef @StrowigLab @CarolineSTawk @Kun_L_H @AmendLena @PonathF @JoergLab @cellhostmicrobe @Helmholtz_HZI cell.com/cell-host-micr…

Small RNA w/big roles in colonization @MoualiYoussef @StrowigLab characterize RNA landscape of Segatella copri. ID small RNA regulator essential for colonization & whose expression is regulated by metabolism of dietary components by S. copri cell.com/cell-host-micr…

RNA world of Prevotella, now Segatella, gut bacteria unfolding! Includes an sRNA essential for colonization. Great work from the @StrowigLab. I am proud to say that three of my former students and postdocs (El Mouali, Tawk, Ponath) contributed to it. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Check out the spectacular work led by @MoualiYoussef - giving insights into #sRNA regulation in the unexplored #Segatella/#Prevotella impacting metabolism and interactions with the host & commensals in the gut🦠

Very proud of the amazing @MoualiYoussef for this fantastic work! Finally we get some deeper mechanistic insight on the lifestyle of the mysterious Segatella/Prevotella copri in the gut.
