Nature Communications - Here, the authors systematically map metaproteomic responses of ex vivo human gut microbiota to common therapeutics, identifying several drug classes inducing strong...

FUGAsseM predicts protein function in microbiomes using coexpression patterns from metatranscriptomes and diverse community-wide data.

Nature Microbiology - A long-read metagenomics method empowers faecal microbiota transplantation studies by precisely tracking bacteria from donors to recipients, distinguishing co-existing strains...

Course exploring how genomics, microbiome profiling, and systems biology reshape our understanding of respiratory infections and immune dynamics.

Certain gut bacteria help to extend the reproductive lifespan of female mice, experiments show.

We are recruiting Faculty microbiologists in three (3) different, complementary, and collaborative areas at the University of Pittsburgh associated with the School of Medicine. 1) Fundamental researc...

Minich et al. hypothesized that complete metagenome-assembled genomes, recovered through long-read DNA sequencing, would enable pangenome and microbial genome-wide association analyses to identify microbial genetic associations with child linear growth. This cross-platform, long-read resource demonstrates the power of comparing cMAGs with health trajectories, establishing a new standard for microbiome research.

Differences between cancer types, infectious disease, and potential prognostic markers are uncovered by studying microbes within cancer DNA.

Commensal Candida albicans enhances the virulence and dissemination of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium.

A study of 483 mammoth remains spanning over a million years reveals ancient host-associated microbes preserved in bones and teeth, offering new insights into the long-term evolution of Pleistocene microbiomes and their association with megafaunal hosts.

The microbial composition of metagenomes is identified in seconds by profiling against large databases.
