Our new study @NatureMedicine from the Human Phenotype Project: Analyzing diet and microbiome data from 10,000 people, we found that what you eat is strongly linked to which microbes live in your gut, down to specific foods like coffee, yogurt, and milk driving distinct microbial signatures. We also simulate personalized dietary interventions with predicted microbiome shift effects that are associated with improvements in cardiometabolic health Read here: nature.com/articles/s41591-0… HPP: humanphenotypeproject.org/ho…

🚨 New publication alert! 🚨 As part of the exciting #HCA publication bundle in @Nature, we reveal metaplasia’s role in inflammation in gut diseases, powered by a single-cell atlas of the entire human gastrointestinal tract. 🌟 nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Our single-cell integration study maps the entire GI tract, revealing how epithelial cell metaplasia contributes to inflammation in IBD and colorectal cancer. 🧬🦠 Explore the #GutCellAtlas at 🌐 gutcellatlas.org! congrats to @AmandaOPhD and team! @sangerinstitute

Thanks so much @fionapowrie @powrie_lab for the shout-out of our preprint in your excellent CSHL Microbiome meeting keynote! We're very excited to be exploring the mechanisms by which resident microbes induce protective host responses in the gut! #cshl #microbiome

What your brain's microbiome means for your health? The answer is: Absolutely nothing, as there is none. And no, brain microbiomes play also no role in neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's. This article is not based on scientific information that is credible.

Imagine if you woke up this morning and found that the NIH-funded database that holds all of the data that you and thousands of other scientists around the world consult every day was turned off. Gone. Despite many efforts by a community of scientists to lobby @NIH @NIHDirector this has happened #RIP @VectorBase @veupathdb
