Finally out! Our discovery of bile acid conjugation by the gut microbiome live in nature. Years of work from amazing collaborators that will change our understanding of human bile and host-microbe interaction. Pedro van Dorrestein MSU MSU Biochemistry nature.com/articles/s4158…

The American Gut Project at UC San Diego School of Medicine is focusing on #COVID19 by assisting Jack A Gilbert (he/him/his) and Knight Lab labs in the pandemic response. We URGENTLY need funds to expand research on surveillance and transmission. Please consider donating: go.ucsd.edu/2QlTi8n


Congratulations to DOCTOR Alison Vrbanac, who delivered a spectacular virtual PhD thesis defense on her work bridging the science of Knight Lab and our own group, spread out in contributions to an amazing 16 papers! See the microbiome and metabolome at a whole organism level!


A mouse gets just one dose of antibiotic Its #microbiome changes all along the GI tract Its #metabolomics can change even in distant organs From Alison Vrbanac Katy Patras Multi-lab collaboration UC San Diego Health Knight Lab Pieter Dorrestein Robert Quinn msystems.asm.org/content/5/5/e0…



Excited to share our story on Group B Strep, HMOs, and the vaginal microbiota! Initiated in the ᐯIᑕTOᖇ ᑎIᘔET lab and brought to fruition by Marlyd Mejia with the help of Alison Vrbanac Jacob Zulk @Dr_LarsBode and other colleagues.

Excited to share our findings on another beneficial effect of HMOs with a focus on maternal vaginal microbes and pathogen GBS. Hard work by first time first author Marlyd Mejia and a great team! Alison Vrbanac Jacob Zulk @Dr_LarsBode ᐯIᑕTOᖇ ᑎIᘔET journals.asm.org/eprint/F55B4KH…

A major challenge to understanding the function of the human vaginal microbiota is the lack of an animal model. We're one step closer with humanized microbiota mice. Happy to share the hard work of Marlyd Mejia and help from @rabritton's group biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
