Controlled colonization of the human gut with a genetically engineered microbial therapeutic
Precision microbiome programming for therapeutic applications is limited by challenges in achieving reproducible colonic colonization. Previously, we created an exclusive niche that we used to engraft...

From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

This is a list of blockbuster drugs in 2024. Guess how many can trace their origins to NIH funded research?
All of them.

To my friends and colleagues at UAB, IU, UF, FSU, UL, WashU, OSU, CWRU, etc, etc. Call both your senators and your representative. They listen. Emphasize the direct economic impact of NIH research, and the indirect impacts on pharmaceutical/biotech. Underscore its relevance to national security.
The Senate HELP Committee has jurisdiction over NIH.
GOP members of the committee represent AK, AL, IN, FL, KS, KY, LA, ME, MO, OH, and SC.
Research universities and hospitals in those states need to be extra loud.

A human gut bacterium antagonizes neighboring bacteria by altering their protein-folding ability
Antagonism shapes microbiomes. Lim et al. identify a mechanism used by human gut commensals
to antagonize related bacteria. The secreted effector Bte1 alters the protein-folding

What a fantastic and comprehensive study! Congrats!!
New paper out today from the lab on Akkermansia muciniphila 🦠and how it breaks down host glycans! Very proud of my group, especially @cassiebakshani.bsky.social who did an amazing job. @naturemicrobiol.bsky.social

Hi all, I just moved over to BlueSky from X (completely deleted that account forever).
I’m hoping to find the microbiologists, microbiome scientists and glycobiologists!
