This intervention needed heroic efforts from you Mads Israelsen, the OUH team and most importantly the volunteers. Kudos!

Ready to start #EESMicrobiome !!!

So great to participate in #EESMicrobiome!! Ready for great scientific discussions next days!! 👏👏🔬

Review Commons is at the #EESMicrobiome 2023!! Exciting "take-off" to the meeting with a flight stewardess asking us fasten our seatbelts Nice introductory talks by the organisers esp Mani Arumugam Mani Arumugam

🦠 Excited to be attending (Virtually) #EESMicrobiome organized by EMBL Events EMBO (20-23 September 2023) Led by great opening talks from Mani Arumugam #DrAmiBhatt Nicola Segata Looking forward to the rest of the sessions in upcoming days! 🥳 Thanks Toni Gabaldón gabaldonlab

Amazing talks and engaging discussions in day one of #EESMicrobiome. It is very rare that a virtual participation feels almost as good as the in person experience! Thanks to the organizers and EMBL Events. Look forward to Day 2

Half-time report from #EESMicrobiome 2023 with Nicola Segata Bork Group at EMBL Heidelberg moved to BlueSky Ami S Bhatt Highlights for me so far: ➡️ Who needs splicing when you have invertases - Ami ➡️ Rational design of synthetic communities Kenya Honda ➡️ Unsaturated LCFAs as therapy for bacterial vaginosis Meilin Zhu

Just presented some of my work on gut phages at #EESMicrobiome in Heidelberg! Special thanks to the organizers for selecting my abstract for an oral presentation! 🎤🦠

And it’s a wrap! Thank you Ami Bhatt, Nicola Segata Mani Arumugam & Bork Group at EMBL Heidelberg moved to BlueSky for a great EMBL Events #EESmicrobiome meeting! See you all in two years ❤️💪🧫

We are looking for a highly competitive candidate to apply for this position.If you are interested in diet-microbiota-host interactions in early life and work in Spain, Please contact me!!--experts in computational biology, microbial ecology, metabolomics & transcriptomics.💩🔬🤱

Realized 2 days to India trip that there might be issues due to passport renewal for my OCI-holder daughter. Excellent advice and support given at Indian embassy Copenhagen to enable our travel. All went well during immigration at Delhi airport. Thank you IndiainDenmark 🙏🏻

We are excited to share our new study led by @SarSarela (now GL ITQB NOVA) & Michael Kuhn! By comparing the effects of 30 drugs on a 32-species synthetic community and community members in isolation, communal behaviors emerged in 26% of all cases! Link: cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
