If you are a #gutmicrobiome researcher looking for a post-doctoral position, I have an opportunity for you to join our team Paulsen Lab Professor Mark Molloy Professor Sugar at the beautiful Macquarie University North Ryde campus. More information and how to apply aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%… Please RT





⭐⭐⭐ Check out our new paper published in Science Advances on the DNA sensor Ku70 in preventing bowel cancer (1/5) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…


🔥Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a way to treat ulcerative colitis. Our collaborative work with Nadeem Kaakoush shows that in patients undergoing this treatment, the immune protein GBP5 needs to get out of the way to resolve bowel inflammation 🔥#badinflammation #ibd 1/2


Super excited to share my postdoc work in Nadeem Kaakoush’s lab finally out in Nature Communications 🤗🤗 While we know much about the gut microbiome changes that occur in #UC patients that respond to #FMT, not much is known about the underlying host changes 🧵(1/3) nature.com/articles/s4146…

#Whooping cough aka #pertussis is surging in Australia. My article in The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand on Why, and how can we protect ourselves? theconversation.com/whooping-cough…

We have two new roles opened to come join our #Chlamydia research team with Prof Willa Huston and Samitha Fernando seek.com.au/job/76347846?t… seek.com.au/job/76314557

Do we need to assemble MAGs to build community genome scale metabolic models or can we get away with using reference genomes? Our msystems study led by Marwan majzoub in Nadeem Kaakoush lab show the utility and complementarity of a reference-based approach journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…

How accurate are genome scale metabolic models (GEMs) of microbial communities? 🤔Researchers profiled 2 approaches to refine GEMs derived from metagenomics using reference-based taxonomic profiling. Learn more in EIC Jack Gilbert 🔗 asm.social/22d


Excited to share my first publication as postdoc in Nadeem Kaakoush lab. We showed that building community genome scale metabolic using a reference-based taxonomy approach is complementary to MAG-based approach and this is dependent on sample type journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/ms…

⭐Happy to share this new review written with the one and only Thirumala-Devi Kanneganti Kanneganti Lab, now out in Nature Cell Biology. Find out how our immune system decodes messages from the dead😵 What are dead cells telling us before they perish?💀 rdcu.be/dSHtQ John Curtin School of Medical Research, ANU ourANU


⭐⭐⭐ I’m delighted to share our new paper published in Nature Immunology on the immune system and cancer: rdcu.be/dWUq8 😊#jcsmr #anu #cancer #immunology John Curtin School of Medical Research, ANU ourANU ANU Media Research at ANU Science & Medicine at ANU 1/9


Our Consensus statement on #microbiome testing in clinical practice is out in The Lancet Gastroenterology & Hepatology! authors.elsevier.com/a/1kDP5_u7c5KU… Here we recommend how to standardise the framework for test release (indications, pre-testing protocols, sequencing & analysis, result reporting). A thread🧵⬇️

Happy to share our recent paper led by our talented PhD student Riya Shrestha! In this study we examined the role of the ‘gate-keepers’ of #fatsynthesis in #liver #tumours cancerandmetabolism.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…🧵



Congratulations to Nadeem Kaakoush from @unsw who was awarded the new 2025 NHMRC Peer Review Excellence Biennial Award (EMCR). This award recognises his significant contributions as both a peer reviewer and mentor for NHMRC’s grant program.
