Michael Daniels

Postdoc at University of Vienna | PhD from ETH Zürich. Investigating the interactions between bacteria and hormones.

[Michael Daniels @MicrobeDaniels]

How do stress hormones affect gut bacteria?

In our new study, we show that catecholamines (dopamine, norepinephrine, epinephrine) have widespread but species-specific effects on human gut bacteria.

A cross-species study in microbial endocrinology:

Our article on microbial interactions is out!
We discuss what are microbial interactions, what are they useful for, and how to quantify them.

We're looking for an enthusiastic experimentalist PhD student to join our interdisciplinary group interested in the ecology & evolution of microbial communities https://t.co/s2x7ncXcWZ. Apply https://t.co/4cV3n2ti0x before Aug 31! Bonus: Lausanne is a beautiful place to live!

Old news but:

I am happy to announce that - after a longer hiatus - I have joined @DavidBerry44's group at @DOME_Vienna as a @FWF_at Esprit Fellow. Looking forward to conducting reseach on host gut microbiome interactions.

This one is great.

Today my time at @EawagResearch has sadly come to an end. I would like to thank the groups of @MicSysEcoLab, @DrinkMic, @trj2, @serina_robinson & David Johnson for creating such an inspiring and friendly work environment. It was a fantastic time. May our paths cross again!

@johngreen Initial thought was to ask whether you are a PhD student. But then I realised who tweeted this

[Jordi van Gestel @jordivangestel]

Great opportunity here for theory at EMBL! Don't miss it.

Second PhD Paper submitted.
Here we @proteocean, @OlgaTSchubert
(et al.) study how bacteria without the ability to degrade chitin can influence the community level function of polymer degradation by inducing the expression of hydrolytic enzymes in degraders.

Yesterday I successfully defended my PhD.🥳 I had an amazing day and I would like to thank everyone that supported me along the way! 🥰 @MicSysEcoLab @usys_ethzh @EawagResearch #PhDone

@KostChristian @nonresidentdesi Congrats, Glen!

[Christian Kost @KostChristian]

Congratulations Glen for receiving the Tom Brock award for one of the best presentations presented by a postdoctoral researcher at #isme18 @nonresidentdesi

This is very well-deserved 🥂🥳👍

[Michael Daniels @MicrobeDaniels]

Great talk by @AuraRaulo at #ISME18 on whether environmental or social transmission is responsible for gut microbiome similarities among individuals

[Julien Luneau @JSLuneau]

It was a pleasure to present a poster on my early work in @DalCo_Lab today at #ISME18 and to pitch it during the #PlantMicrobialEcology session!! 🦠🌱

Thanks to everyone who passed by to discuss #microfluidics #simulations #PathogenEcology #CollectiveBehavior and #evolution 😁🙏

[Dr. Heidi Arjes @HeidiArjes]

#ISME18 Looking for a user-friendly program all in one place? We were too, so we made this.

Thanks @zoilaialvarez (poster 16.013) & @ZHallberg (poster 16.073)!

Also, come to my talk Tues. AM and/or follow me on twitter.
