Excited to share the preprint of our latest work led by Petra Geiser, using live cell imaging in human gut #enteroids and #colonoids to explain the differing epithelial infection cycles of #Shigella and #Salmonella .

Faecal imaging is the future 😆

We have a new preprint out! 🥳

#Brachyspira triggers #spirochetosis marked by diarrhea & abdominal pain. B. pilosicoli is a gut commensal #microbe linked to Irritable bowel syndrome ( #IBS ), but how it colonizes the colonic epithelium is a mystery.

Is forgetting a bug or a feature? Can you delay it and remember longer? Our 🥶COOLEST paper to date (and our most poetic abstract…) Show LOVE ❤️and please SHARE! Thread (1/N)👇

Congrats to the Bel Lab - looking forward to seeing how the ABX/mucus/IBD connection develops 🥸

Many thanks to Mucosal Immunology for this honor! Enjoyed working with Bailey Didriksen and Emily Eshleman on this review discussing how #epithelial sensing of the #microbiota can direct immune responses #mucosalimmunology #everycellisanimmunecell

Opening for a postdoctoral researcher at the Slack lab in Oxford!
Come and join our team to work on sampling of gut antigens for IgA priming.

We are looking for postdoctoral candidates with expertise in analytical chemistry focusing on metabolomics, specifically LC-MS, and GC-MS.
In addition, experience in microbiology and familiarity with data analysis software, will be considered a valuable asset.

I see we are getting to the stage of the discussion where people are starting to defend UMAP saying it can 'reveal patterns' or 'structure' in the data. Without ever specifying what precisely these patterns/structures represent. This is not surprising because hardly anybody 1/n

We are thrilled to present a new family of microbial mucinases that specifically recognize mucin O-glycan clusters and employ two glutamic acid residues for catalytic cleavage. nature.com/articles/s4192…

Last chance to sign up! Some really excellent speakers lined up for this, do it.

Our study that defines the regiospecific function of membrane mucin MUC17 in the intestinal tract is now out on bioRxiv.
