Human milk oligosaccharides and Bifidobacterium species Spotlight on fascinating work by Henrik M. Roager Martin Frederik Laursen ๐ถ๐ผ๐ผ #glycotime sciencedirect.com/science/articlโฆ original article below Cassie Bakshani Trends in Microbiology

Thank you Lucy Crouch-Myers & Cassie Bakshani for highlighting our recent work ๐. Happy to see that we are not the only ones finding this topic fascinating and important ๐๐ค Trends in Microbiology The ISME Journal



Cassie Bakshani and Taiwo Ojuri have been amazing this year ๐ so excited for 2024 science. Definitely time for sitting around in PJs though ๐ด hereโs a lovely TLC from Cassie recently, much nicer than mine!



First pre-print from the lab! โCarbohydrate-active enzymes from Akkermansia muciniphila breakdown mucin O-glycans to completionโ ๐Cassie Bakshani Taiwo Ojuri ๐ IMIBirmingham #glycotime we hope people enjoy reading it! biorxiv.org/content/10.110โฆ

๐ฃ New preprint ๐ฃ Also my first since joining Lucy Crouch-Myersโs lab at IMIBirmingham! Carbohydrate-active enzymes from Akkermansia muciniphila breakdown mucin O-glycans to the core GalNAc ๐จ biorxiv.org/content/10.110โฆ

Sara รakaj joins the group this week as a PhD student Sara รakaj Sara completed UG and MSc projects in the lab and we are so pleased sheโs back again ๐๐ IMIBirmingham #glycotime



Cassie Bakshani giving a fantastic talk on her work on Akkermansia enzymes breaking down host glycans #cbm15 #glycotime







New paper from the lab out today on Akkermansia muciniphila and how it breaks down host glycans! IMIBirmingham College of Medicine and Health (UoB) Very proud of my group, especially Cassie Bakshani who did an amazing job. Nature Microbiology nature.com/articles/s4156โฆ


Our work on Akkermansia muciniphila utilisation of host glycans is out today. Huge thanks to our team and wonderful collaborators. Super proud of this one! ๐ซ IMIBirmingham College of Medicine and Health (UoB) nature.com/articles/s4156โฆ
