Excited to share that I was awarded a 6M SEK grant from Formas, the Swedish Research Council for Sustainable Development ! 🎉

The project is about the early-life gut #microbiome of reindeer calves, and how it's associated with their health and growth. 🦌🦠🧬

At a recent journal club, we discussed this paper on urban coyote #microbiomes and diet by Sugden et al., and I really enjoyed reading it. 😊

An altered microbiome in urban coyotes mediates relationships between anthropogenic diet and poor health. 🐺

Last week, we at @animecol-uu.bsky.social had the pleasure to host Chima Nwaogu från the University of Cape Town.

Chima gave the #Hemborg lecture, titled 'Why do Afrotropical birds breed when they do?' 🐦🪺

Thanks #ESEB2025 for a great conference!

Our group had a lot of fun meeting people, learning new things, and talking about our research!

This is a collaboration between Uppsala University, SLU and the Norwegian Veterinary Institute, led by @annaskarin.bsky.social to investigate causes of reindeer calf #mortality from multiple angles. #EQUIP #ReinGut

We have spent the last week on fieldwork, sampling #reindeer calves. 🦌

We've been in the mountains in Jämtland, at the Tåssåsen Sámi reindeer herding community. Fantastic experience being part of the calf marking event. #microbiome
