Does the development of a polyp before the age of 50 increase the subsequent risk of colorectal neoplasia? Don’t miss Yufeng's poster — evidence you’ll want to see!

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle after a colorectal cancer diagnosis is linked to a significantly lower risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. These findings highlight the importance of integrating lifestyle interventions into oncology care to improve cardiovascular health among survivors.

Kai Wang will deliver two talks at Digestive Disease Week 2025 #DDW2025:

May 3 at 2:15 PM (Room 29CD): Exploring how diet shapes fecal bile acid profiles and impacts colorectal neoplasia risk.

May 4 at 11:00 AM (Room 28DE) — AGA Basic Science Plenary: Unveiling how the gut microbiome drives bile acid metabolism through a multiomics analysis involving metagenomics, metabolomics, and proteomics.

His work bridges diet, microbiome, and cancer prevention. If you’re attending DDW, you won’t want to miss these sessions! @HarvardEpi @MingyangSong3

We're honored to be featured in the Harvard Gazette for our recent journal article on colorectal cancer screening. @MingyangSong3 @AndyChanMD @wangkaiepi @HSPHCancerEpi @HarvardEpi @HarvardChanSPH

Our findings have significant implications for personalized healthcare: Individuals with a clean colonoscopy might extend their screening intervals beyond 10 years, depending on lifestyle risk factors and family history.

This framework helps refocus healthcare resources on those at greater risk—those who've never been screened and disadvantaged groups with traditionally lower screening rates.

We're grateful to the Harvard Gazette for highlighting our efforts. You can read the article here:

🌟 Exciting News from Our Lab! 🌟 We’re thrilled to share our latest collaborative research with the Segata Lab @cibiocm published in Nature Microbiology! Our study reveals a fascinating connection between coffee consumption and the abundance of the gut microorganism Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus. ☕️🦠 @wangkaiepi @AmrishaBhosle @paolo_manghi @chuttenh @nsegata @HarvardEpi @NatureMicrobiol @MingyangSong3

🔬We conducted a comprehensive multi-cohort, multi-omic analysis of over 22,000 participants from the US and UK, complemented by public data from 211 cohorts. The results? A strikingly reproducible link between coffee consumption and gut microbiome composition!
