New preprint from @ruairirobertson @MangesLab & @ZvitamboZim investigating the relationship between gut microbiome composition & oral rotavirus vaccine immunogenicity. #microbiome medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
Birth weight is the strongest predictor of stunting & other infant health outcomes. Our paper in @eBioMedicine shows that the maternal gut microbiome predicts gestational age, birth weight & neonatal growth @MangesLab @ZvitamboZim @QMUL @QMULBartsTheLon thelancet.com/journals/ebiom…
New review paper on the potential role for breastfeeding in protection against antimicrobial resistance published today in @BMCMedicine by @mayanads @ruairirobertson @MangesLab @ZvitamboZim @SeqH2O and co bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…
Could a "good community" of bacteria be the answer to the rapidly evolving antibiotic resistance problem? Sign up for the trial if you are eligible and help us explore the mechanisms behind the displacement of the resistant organisms!

Metagenomic sequencing today on our @nanopore MinION...very exciting! #longreads #nanopore @MangesLab

I still remember @nanopore being useful even at 85% accuracy. Mind blowing that you can now read a single molecule at 450 bases pr second at 98% accuracy #nanoporeconf
There were 547 new #COVID19 cases were reported in BC this week. The most likely source of infection continues to be contact with a local case or cluster. While new hospital admissions remain low, there was a small increase: #COVIDBC surveillance report ow.ly/u3Hw50BbPBg
Advances in microbiome research help us understanding its role in human wellbeing. @colinhillucc highlights, however, that we must ensure that studying the microbiome remains a science and not a belief system via @NutritionSoc & @NS_Publications ow.ly/jG3130r6GNB
A few photos from our recent (socially distanced) summer lab social! Also a big thank you and farewell to our outgoing Lab Technician @iman_baharmand ! Best of luck in medical school!
A warm welcome to our new Research Tech (and future MSc student) Nick Gauthier! Joining us from @SFU_Science and the Quarmby Lab
A giant leap forward in our understanding of the role of the human gut microbiome in drug metabolism, congrats to the @donia_lab cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
