If you are interested in oral microbiomes, come check out @OU_LMAMR PhD student @sarahjane0060's poster today at #SMBE2024!
Poster # 49: The influence of subsistence strategies on oral microbiome composition and function in ancient populations.

[Cecil Merlin Lewis @CecilMLewis]

Wrapping up a great visit by @the_carter_show! So happy he can join us before heading off to his faculty position at @NCState. Tapping into some metagenomes with @tanvihonap @sarahjane0060 at @OU_LMAMR!

Erica Palmer, Marie Capps and Brian Kemp, researchers from @OU_LMAMR, contributed to a study of Alaska archaeological sites 7,000 years old and older. This study found that ancient Alaskans were freshwater fishers. 🎣 https://t.co/ceKI2z77Jv

Congratulations to (now former) @OU_LMAMR PhD students - @anthro_justino, Kristen Rayfield, and @thehaffner! 🥳

[LMAMR @OU_LMAMR]

Fun times at the @OU_LMAMR Annual Spring Gathering! We also celebrated our new PhDs - Dr. Haffner and Dr. Rayfield!

[LMAMR @OU_LMAMR]

Congratulations to @OU_LMAMR's newly minted Dr. Kristen Rayfield on an excellent Ph.D. defense! 🥳Her dissertation is titled "Anthropogenic Impacts: Bringing Multi-Omic Approaches to Niche Construction Theory".

[LMAMR @OU_LMAMR]

Congratulations to @OU_LMAMR's newly-minted Dr. Jacob Haffner @thehaffner on a fantastic Ph.D. defense! 🥳

[Cecil Merlin Lewis @CecilMLewis]

Dr, Haffner!!

Interested in antimicrobial resistance in the human gut microbiome? Come and see our poster (#18-1) today from 5-6 PM. #AABA2023

[LMAMR @OU_LMAMR]

Many thanks to the @SamNobleMuseum and The Wichita and Affiliated Tribes for their partnership in this project.

[LMAMR @OU_LMAMR]

Our open-access paper on ancient oral metagenomes from pre-contact era Wichita Ancestors is out in AJBA!

Congratulations @tanvihonap, @CecilMLewisJr, @monroecara14, @sarahjane0060, Marc Levine, Krithi Sankaranarayanan, and all co-authors!

[LMAMR @OU_LMAMR]

In this paper, we present one of the largest oral metagenome datasets from a pre-contact era Native American population. We also demonstrate the presence of distinct lineages of oral microbes specific to the pre-contact Americas.

[LMAMR @OU_LMAMR]

@OU_AGSA and @OU_LMAMR Undergraduate Kaylee Tatum presented her @NSF "Navigating the New Arctic" and OU UReCa funded research at Research Day at the Capitol @OklahomaEPSCoR

[Cecil Merlin Lewis @CecilMLewis]

Wrapped up this year's in-person aspect of our immersion experiences in ancient metagenomics. We loved it! Now looking forward to the virtual training. Thanks @NSF and thank you @sankofadna @GracielaCabana @JenniferRaff @kgbeaty, Lateefa Abul, and Katie McCormack for joining us!

[Cecil Merlin Lewis @CecilMLewis]

New perspective piece entitled, "Ancient pathogens provide a window into health and well-being" thanks to a great team effort with @StoneLab_ASU, @SharonDeWitte and Mercy Akinyi!

Check out our new paper on the shared human fecal metabolome! Congratulations to lead author @thehaffner as well as @LabMccall, @CecilMLewisJr, & all co-authors.

[Cecil Merlin Lewis @CecilMLewis]

We have an exciting new paper: the first publication estimating the shared chemistry of the human gut across a range of industrial and non-industrial lifestyles! Great collaborators, including co-lead @LabMccall
