Thank you @jcellsci.bsky.social! It was so much fun chatting with Editor @seemagrewal.bsky.social about my journey, research, and advice for junior scientists.
It’s great that it reads just like our conversation flowed. I sincerely hope it resonates with trainees out there!

Super interesting! I’m curious what’s considered a “high-fiber” diet for people. Looks like the mice were tested on either no fiber or all carbs replaced with fiber? 🌾VS🍞 #microbiomesky 🧪🦠
If you missed Dr Chudan Xu's talk on what happens when we don't eat enough fibre, the preprint is now live 👇

Bacteria in the human gut rarely update their CRISPR defense systems
MIT research finds intestinal bacterial interact much less often with viruses that trigger immunity updates than bacteria in the lab. The results will help to assess gut microbiome health.

📢 Our new preprint is out! We show how the common gut bacterium 𝘌. 𝘧𝘢𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴 stops wound healing. It uses a metabolic pathway, extracellular electron transport (EET), to stress host cells, halting their migration. Watch WT bacteria (orange) stop the cells while the mutant (blue) doesn't!
