🚨Paper Alert🚨
Today I gladly present one of my postdoc projects. People who know me may wonder why there isn't a single mention of a "T cell" in there. I got side-tracked trying to learn something about the gut microbiota.
Read why that was all worth it in this great thread👇

Very honored to see our work awarded a @Pfizer prize. Hard teamwork pays off. Thank you to Andrew Macpherson and the rest of the group for their support and to @DBMR_UniBe @inselgruppe for support.

Our new review on how mild reductions in dietary intake can optimize immunity, and how the immune system adapts to preserve vital functions in contexts of undernutrition @BelkaidLab @ImmunityCP https://t.co/2NJ5M1ifaR

[Quadram Institute @TheQuadram]

A common member of the human gut #microbiome has a specific preference for blood group A antigens, researchers in the @JugeLab have discovered.

This may give it an advantage when foraging for sugars, allowing it to colonise the #gut more easily.

Proud and honoured to present this incredibly exciting collaboration with the marvellous @TinaStehle , @RomagnaniLab and @HD311273 out in @NatImmunol.
You thought that RORgt was absolutely required for lymph node formation?? Think again!😉 https://t.co/yavdzf7HVt

#Flowcytometry and/or #microbiota aficionados: I have the honour of giving an @ISAC_CYTO webinar on flow cytometry and cell sorting of the intestinal microbiota: 21/09/21 at 12 pm EDT / 6 pm CH/DE... Hope to see you there to discuss! Registration required but free. Please RT!

If interested in metabolomics in the gut microbiome,
check out our new paper in Nature: https://t.co/Vnc2U1M34B Great collaboration with
@mfgrp , @czbiohub, Dylan Dodd, & others + dream-team leaders @shuolhan
and Will Van Treuren. Hoping this work helps democratize the
approach!

Congrats @KylaOst, June Round, and team. IgA uniquely uncouples colonization from pathogenesis in commensal fungi to promote homeostasis @Nature

Awesome trial of #diet and #microbiome in healthy people

Fibre diet (very high 45 g/d!)
↔️No effect on diversity
↕️Personal immune responses

Fermented foods (6 servings per day!)
⬆️Increase diversity
⬇️Decreased inflammatory markers

Very cool ⁦@ImmunityCP⁩! #myeloid cells directly sense #SARCoV2 via #CLRs & Tweety family member 2 and potentiates #inflammation, but are not infected! Possible new therapeutic targets against #COVID19! https://t.co/XIquohwhuy

[Ian Young @IanYDavid]

I am pleased to share our new publication discussing the immunomodulatory properties of β-2,6 fructans, particularly microbial levan. A big thank you to Prof. Dr Nathalie Juge @JugeLab and Dr Dimitris Latousakis @dms_lat , and to the reviewers and editors.
