On Friday (8:30 am local time) I'll have the honour to kick-off the #EHMSG workshop with highlights of the latest Segata Lab human microbiome transmission studies, including #microTOUCH baby: baby-to-baby microbiome transmission in a nursery setting. See you in Porto! #EHMSG2024

Lots of great papers out this week...here's one to read with your morning or afternoon pick-me-up, a News & Views covering our recent paper on coffee consumption and the microbiome nature.com/articles/s4156…

Coffee consumption is associated with the presence and abundance of a specific member of the human gut microbiome, Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus, and changes to the plasma metabolome, according to a paper in Nature Microbiology. go.nature.com/4i3gqUI

☕ Drinking coffee is associated with significant changes the gut microbiome, particularly increased Lawsonibacter asaccharolyticus, & elevated quinic acid in blood. Importantly, this is replicated across geographies. Interesting work from Segata Lab nature.com/articles/s4156…

In this study just published npj Journals Biofilms & Microbiomes, we collected dental swab samples from dogs to shed light on the hardly studied dog dental plaque microbiome (1/7)

#Blastocystis gets some publicity in nature This long-overlooked gut microbe is finally getting the spotlight it deserves. Huge thanks to our BlastocystisCOST Action members whose dedication helped bring Blastocystis to global attention. #Microbiome nature.com/articles/d4158…
