A giant leap forward in our understanding of the role of the human gut microbiome in drug metabolism, congrats to the Mohamed Donia cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

A warm welcome to our new Research Tech (and future MSc student) Nick Gauthier! Joining us from SFU Science and the Quarmby Lab

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!

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 Nutrition Society & Nutrition Society Publications ow.ly/jG3130r6GNB

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

I still remember Oxford 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

Our first operations centre meeting on COVID vaccine roll out was yesterday. We are SO ready to work toward an end game for this pandemic. Big logistical challenge but bring .... it ... ON! UBC's School of Population and Public Health BC Centre for Disease Control @UBCmedicine
