Lots of great science being presented from lab at the MVM retreat. firas midani eva christine Carla Sanchez and Mads. Also a cute red panda.
Work we have done Britton Lab with Christine Beeton and Hyser Lab preprint on biorXiv and hope paper will be published soon. Probiotics may help against rheumatism – New Scientist time.news/probiotics-may…
Finally, two papers out within a day of each other from the Susan Bullman and CJohnstonLab relating to the intratumoral microbiota, today in nature (doi.org/10.1038/s41586…) and yesterday in Cell Reports (doi.org/10.1016/j.celr…). 🧵below to those interested!
The labs of Drs. Christine Beeton, Robert Britton, Hyser Lab et al are exploring a better way of delivering #medications without #injections but could be as easy as swallowing a #pill. #rheumatoidArthritis PNASNews #microbiome CPRIT NIH blogs.bcm.edu/2023/01/17/fro… BCMHouston
A major challenge to understanding the function of the human vaginal microbiota is the lack of an animal model. We're one step closer with humanized microbiota mice. Happy to share the hard work of Marlyd Mejia and help from Robert Britton's group biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Yesterday was 20 years since the first experiment was run in the Britton Lab lab by Laura Schaefer. Time sure goes by fast. Thanks to all of the trainees and colleagues along the way and looking forward to 20 more. A lot of exciting Microbiome science to translate!
Here Arcadia Science, we've been experimenting with PacBio HiFi sequencing to produce high-quality assemblies of single organisms. We created a simple Nextflow workflow, hifi2genome, for assembly and QC stats 🧵 [1/4] Pub: research.arcadiascience.com/pub/resource-h… Github: github.com/Arcadia-Scienc…
Congrats to Nathanael and Aanchal who presented their research today at the Rice Undergraduate poster session today. Did the Britton Lab proud!
