Wanna see something weird?! Ever thought about this? Every 2nd animal is a fish. Despite this fact, much about the #microbiome in fish is unknown! How is the #metagenome in Norwegian wild Atlantic #salmon as a case? In one word - surprising! Here is a thread! (1/10)

Multi-tasking day for Phil b. Pope, co-chairing an exciting session on novel tecniques in microbial ecology and giving a stellar talk #ISME19 🧬🦠🧪

Sometime we don't need to fully understand the mechanisms for biological correlations to be useful. Check out our explainer video on how Mycoplasma tells us about the health of its host salmon

When they start standing up for themselves, you hear the song of microorganisms in need of saving, too | AAAS. Q&A Discussion of a Trends in Ecology & Evolution article by Morten T Limborg and Caroline Winther-Have science.org/content/articl…

Cheers to Science Magazine for reaching out to me and Caroline Winther-Have for a Q&A chat about our recent TREE paper on how we may gain from increased focus on host associated microbes in conservation. science.org/content/articl…

A new article argues that bacteria have been overlooked in conversations about habitat loss and biodiversity. Science talks to lead authors Morten T Limborg and Caroline Winther-Have about why microbes—even pernicious ones—are worthy of conservation. scim.ag/8hW

The study published in Trends Cell Biology finds that rapid telomere shortening in #gut tissue impacts systemic health by interacting with the gut #microbiome, connecting inflammation, dysbiosis, and #aging. By Michael L. Pepke, Søren B. Hansen, Morten T Limborg doi.org/10.1016/j.tcb.…

We now know hosts respond differently to identical microbiome treatments; it is now important we also seek to understand the mechanisms explaining why. Michael L. Pepke, backed by Søren Blikdal Hansen and I, propose telomeres as one such mechanism: authors.elsevier.com/c/1jkff3QxxSux…

🧬A new review Trends Cell Biology by Michael L. Pepke, Morten T Limborg & Søren Blikdal Hansen reveals that chromosome ends (#telomeres) might influence #gut #microbiota and host interactions! This could reshape our understanding of #GutHealth and #aging🦠 #microbiome Read👇 ceh.ku.dk/news/2024/do-c…

Thank you Center for Evolutionary Hologenomics team for another amazing #teambuilding day and 15 km hike from Hvalsø to Godis Grønt in Lejre 💚☀️

How to obtain teleost metagenomes! While the field of fish microbiomes is growing at an inspiring rate, we still struggle to obtain high quality shotgun based MAGs and metagenomes. In our new paper lead by Eiríkur A. Þormar we demonstrate one way forward. doi.org/10.1002/ece3.7…
