Hey RDs - don't miss the Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Survey from @methodsnerd @NirjharRuth! (see link/email from @eatright). Really critical work to understand the state of evidence-based practice & didactic needs!

This paper is addressing a key challenge wrt the analysis of microbiome metabolomics data and that is - if a microbe can produce a molecule and which microbes can produce them? Tread 1/n

@doriecp I just want to say I really appreciate your care in this as a now 30 year old who was devastated when her mom randomly decided one day when she got home from school as a 10 year old to let her know Santa wasn’t real. My world and the magic of Christmas was completely shattered

I am so excited that @em_gentry1 (@gentrylab) paper on reverse metabolomics to discover molecules is published, a project started in 2018. She found many new lipids and bile acids in humans. https://t.co/OcSxgEIBPt (online https://t.co/OFNSviRq6i) What is reverse metabolomics?

Your heart may race every time you’re about to speak up for yourself. This doesn’t mean it is wrong. It means it didn’t feel safe when you spoke up in the past. Have grace for yourself, breathe through it, and speak. Your voice deserves to be heard.

@PhD_Genie I had to 🤣🤣🤣🤣 My dissertation research was on the human gut microbiome 😅 So we DID need to collect human fecal samples to study how diet affects the microbes, their genes, and the metabolites they produce. It was not THAT gross but I couldn’t resist the GIF 💀
