Thrilled to share a new preprint from our lab co-led by @elisacaetano_ & @AkritiShre that describes gut microbiota immunogenic properties that develop with advanced age and are strongly linked to host inflammation. A journey started thanks to @twbuford..

Last week, my nephew was hospitalized after going into cardiac arrest. Since then, Junior has underwent several surgeries, including open-heart surgery. Thanks to his medical care team, Junior is recovering. This crisis has created financial strain [1/2]

I so appreciate this thread. 100% on target. I hope to contribute to a culture with a more expansive definition of research excellence.
So, I want to talk a bit about our recent article on gender equity in science. Some people have commented that the focus should just be on science in rewarding excellence.

Great editorial in @ScienceMagazine:
"For centuries, Indigenous scientists have had to adapt to, and develop fluency in, Western modes of knowledge making. It’s now Western scientists’ turn to learn from, and respect, Indigenous science."

Excited to share a preprint from our lab. Some new ways to think about how microbial metabolism can be modified to promote fermented food bioactivity. Congrats to PhD student Mikaela Kasperek (not on X) for driving this project forward! More to come 👀..
