Some news to share😀 I will be relocating to The Centre for Microbiome Research (@CMR_QUT and @QUT) in Feb 2024 to launch a @arc_gov_au#FutureFellowship with Gene Tyson and @S_J_Mc that brings omics-guided high throughput cultivation to the rumen microbiome. New bugs = new clues
Thank you, @7NewsBrisbane and @MarlinaWhop, for sharing details of microbiome research from @ThePopeLab at @QUT's @CMR_QUT. They are developing a probiotic for cows to reduce the amount of methane they burp up. https://t.co/YDuIDUfkTz
We're all familiar with probiotics to improve our gut health but a team of Queensland scientists are developing one for cattle. They're aiming to produce more productive animals and fewer greenhouse gas emissions. @MarlinaWhop
Back in 1962 microscopy was used to pen a hypothesis about eukaryote-microbe relationships. ~65 years later we have coupled the latest advancements in long read MetaG, MetaP and EUK SAGs to help explain what this means for wider rumen microbiome function https://t.co/pOEpg0gpP8
Our new preprint, "Spatial constraints drive amylosome-mediated resistant starch degradation by Ruminococcus bromii in the human colon" is now on bioRxiv! Key findings in the thread below below https://t.co/kg8pETnEGh.
The Centre for Microbiome Research @CMR_QUT is looking for a postdoc dedicated to advancing our understanding towards the microbiological, biochemical and genetic processes that cause methanogenesis in the cow rumen. More info 👉 https://t.co/BR4WSBNIPF
Very much to our surprise, a strain of Limosilactobacillus reuteri drives severe pathology in a mouse model of multiple sclerosis. Pathology was driven by a secondary metabolite that hyperactivates the AhR receptor. See our publication in @CellReports.

We are looking for PhD students to join us at @CMR_QUT. A range of projects on offer covering gut microbiome in animal health and nutrition, microbial responses to climate change and microbial methane mediation. More info found here 👉 https://t.co/E0k2l3MSyT
Fun to share our data and hear about the amazing science and developments in metaproteomics at the 6th International Metaproteomics Symposium organized by @MetaP_Init! An amazing time in the snow, meeting old and new friends.
It is still possible to apply for PhD scholarships within computational host/microbiome genomics (hologenomics) at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences!
The positions are part @HoloGen_MSCA
https://t.co/dEBlk5skTr
Deadline: January 17th.
@SabinaLLaRosa @ThePopeLab
We look forward to an exciting talk by Emma Timmins-Schiffman on "Uncovering microbial mysteries: novel peptide sequencing to explore ecosystems across time and space" at the #metaproteomics symposium in January.

Our study on drug-gut microbiome interactions is out! 🦠💊 @NatureMicrobiol
We show that the #Parkinson's drug entacapone induces iron deficiency in microbes, leading to selective inhibition of microbial activity.

A huge congratulations to A/Profs @S_J_Mc and @ThePopeLab on their induction into the ARC's College of Experts! 🎉 We are confident that your contributions will play an important role in improving Australia’s research landscape.
Congrats to @ThePopeLab on the recent publication in Communications Biology, which demonstrates the need for high-resolution microbiome characteristion to design effective intervention strategies—in this case, to improve the health of Atlantic salmon.

So excited to see this out! Aerated environments can be major sources of methane. This is due to the activities of aerotolerant methanogens. In the process, we show unexpected feedbacks between pollution and climate change. @ning_hall@MBiogeochem https://t.co/IZKdZqSY4x
NEW RESOURCE: Using shotgun metagenomics, cultivation and metabolic modelling, the Salmon Microbial Genome Atlas will act as a resource for future studies on sustainable aquaculture

Check out the latest article from CMR’s @ThePopeLab, published in @NatureMicrobiol. The study explores how bacteria found in the gut of Atlantic salmon can support their health and growth. Read more here: https://t.co/X1oiD3ox6h
4 years of collaboration has poured into this resource! Massive thanks to @SabinaLLaRosa and @quark_buzo_vera for driving this and of course all our partners coming from @UniNMBU and abroad @srsandve @TRHvidsten@MortenLimborg@ines_thiele@Stebe69
A fishy tale about the the Salmon Microbial Genome Atlas is now out in @NatureMicrobiol. We hope this culture and genome biobank provides a functional resource to the community and supports the next generation of salmon gut microbiome projects. https://t.co/ChalIbuuhO
Anyone working with metaproteomics and looking for a conference 500m away from a ski resort join us for IMS6 in Norway, January 13-15, 2025.
Registrations and abstract submissions are open now!
