NCBI is making improvements to our Taxonomy resource in response to new data and changes in biological nomenclature and classification. We will update the higher-level classification of birds, budding yeasts, prokaryotes, and viruses. Learn more: ow.ly/22fZ50S8C6P
ALT Eight images in squares, including bird, bread, prokaryotic organisms, and viruses. Text says: Updates coming soon! NCBI Taxonomy.
MGI D.O.-Ph.D. student, Jade Le Bris, will be speaking at Hooked at 2 PM on Saturday, April 27th, about her first novel, "All the Gold Between Us, " a fantasy inspired by Greek mythology. #spartanauthors

A gift from the Class of 1873, the MSU Rock is a beloved campus monument that has spanned generations of students. Painting it is a Spartan tradition.
When a small piece of its special paint layers fell off recently, we preserved it and took photos to share.

There is currently not a single bile acid detection protocol that can fully capture the true diversity of bile acids, and, as a result, the ability to comprehensively detect and describe the extensive bile acid metabolic network represents a 21st century analytical challenge!!!
Excited to start my research group at @UccMicrobiology and @Pharmabiotic in Cork. Advertising 2 PhD positions as part of my @ERC starter grant studying gut spore forming bacteria using computational and anaerobic microbiology techniques ucc.ie/en/microbiology/curre…
#BileAcids, essential molecules produced in the liver, play a vital role in our gut health.
@michiganstateu researchers Robert Quinn and Doug Guzior shed light on the microbial contribution of these important molecules.

Needed to do 96 wp platereader anaerobic cultures but the machine is not built for that. Then I thought: no headspace = no oxygen right? So I filled the wells to the brim and stuck PCR seal over it and BOOM it worked! Data below 👇

Trilled to announce the first piece of my dissertation has been published today in Nature! We show that bile salt hydrolase is one of the culprits behind microbial bile acid conjugation. Thank you to all those involved! @MSU_MGI @Quinn_Labsnature.com/articles/s41586-0…
