Very excited about our new @NatureMicrobiol paper on the vaginal microbiome and preterm birth with @WilliamKindsch1, @tkorem, Martin Liu,
@MaayanLevy_Lab and the korem_lab!
Below are a few insights on our modeling of the vaginal microbiome metabolism

So, our models are not accurate for this subgroup. Bad, but also interesting news - because this points towards differences in strains, functional capacities, or non-microbial effects. This outlines a strategy to use model interrogation to point us towards interesting biology.
