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!

Great occasion for my 1st tweet! Proud contributor to this nature perspective on the ongoing debate questioning a fetal #microbiome. With 46 experts in #microbiome #science and related disciplines, we assess the evidence. The answer, an unambiguous ‘No’ bit.ly/3XF4ePg

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…
