Our latest pub shows what happens when resistant starch and whole grains are combined in a diet. Metatranscriptomes reveal an overwhelming effect of the resistant starch on gut microbiome stress-response and carbohydrate metabolism pathways. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our new pub shows how lactic acid bacteria reduce their extracellular environment by blending #fermentation and respiration. This ability for extracellular electron transfer expands how we can apply LAB in #foods and as #probiotics doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

Amazing talk by Maria Marco on how certain probiotics can generate electricity! 🦠 ⚡️ #ISAPP2022

Half way home from ISAPP. No work-related travel from now until ISME - International Society for Microbial Ecology in August. Looking forward to an exciting session there, convened by Maria Marco and Marie Christine isme18.isme-microbes.org/microbial-ecol…

Congrats to Glory Bui on winning a ISAPP SFA poster award ISAPP ISAPP-SFA! She has done an amazing job studying how Lcasei modulates intestinal epithelial cells through secreted compounds made during growth in milk.

Interested in antimicrobial peptides and bacteriocins? Here you have a complete set of protocols useful bacteriocin works. Thanks to Ulm and NTNU for a nice collaboration, in the EU project Ifermenter. bio-protocol.org/e4477

My warm-up to #ISME18! Ready to take these panoramic views to a microbial level.

After that inspiring first session #ISME18, I’m even more excited for our session tomorrow on food microbial ecology with Paul Cotter, Nick Bokulich, Marie-Christine Champomier-Verges, and many more.

Excited for the start of #fermentation2022 with opening talk by Karen Wang Diggs ChouAmiFerments on medicinal plants and fermentation. Looking forward to three days of fermented food talks!

I’m excited to be participating in this unique event!

T-minus 4 hours and counting!
