For somebody working on the gut #microbiome, the responses ("gross", "embarrassment", "pseudoscience", etc.) to this @Nature article on the treatment of C-section babies with their mother’s poo are quite sobering. So, I thought I would provide a perspective in the thread below.

Our online mixOmics workshop starts on Oct 21. It is self-paced with 4 live webinars, and we provide advice to analyse your own data. You will learn about data exploration and omics data integration techniques! See 👇 mixomics.org/2024/06/online… @MelbIntGen #omics #Rstats

@AmyDWillis Looks like a great set of features, thanks for sharing! Since they're jointly modeled, should each taxon be interpreted as adjusted for all others?

A reminder - if you’re using 🦤 radEmu 🦤 for differential abundance and have suggestions or questions, we’d love to hear from you! 💻📈 We *love* this method - and it’s here to stay - so let us know what you need via GitHub issues! Online docs ICYMI: statdivlab.github.io/radEmu/article…

@LehtimakiJenni @ERC_Research Fantastic! So happy to see you succeed and so well deserved! Will follow your work in the coming years with great interest!

Lovely to come back from holiday and see this published, led by the great Trine Zachariasen. MAGinator is a wonderful resource helping unify taxonomy and functions in the analysis of metagenomes. Oh and the stuff Gisle said 👇 Now a @COPSAC_com default! Thanks all contributors!

Trine Zachariasen made this masterpiece during her PhD. Go check it out! MAGinator provides de novo identification of subspecies-level microbes and accurate abundance estimates of MAGs. Code and cluster setup using Conda and Snakemake on Github nature.com/articles/s4146…

UGENS FORSKER: ”Jeg vil gerne forstå den rolle, som bakterier spiller for børneastma – særligt hos de små børn"🦠🩺 Sådan siger @Jonathanthdk fra @HerlevGentofte, der undersøger børneastma i målet om bedre forebyggelse og behandling af sygdommen. dff.dk/ansog/stottet-…

Thanks to guests @nic_timpson of @CO90s (UK) 🇬🇧, @Melissa_Wake of @GenV_for_kids (Australia) 🇦🇺, @stokholm_jakob & @KlausBonnelykke of @COPSAC_com (Denmark) 🇩🇰 for sharing their incredible experiences with #birthcohorts at the CHILD @sickkids symposium! childstudy.ca/symposium-spot…

We wrote a grant in 2015, got funded in 2016 (JPIHDHL/Europe, DAHES/Denmark, INRAE/France, #CIHR/Canada), then a team of great scientists elevated this initiative to a new high. Extra funding led to this👇Huge congrats to the EarlyVir Team! #phage #COPSAC nature.com/articles/s4159…

The baby #phage #asthma story is on the front page of politiken.dk now

So exited to share our newest paper in @NatureMedicine, where we link early life gut virome with later asthma. Specific compositions of temperate phages drive the association independently from their bacterial counterpart and interacts with host genetics. nature.com/articles/s4159…
