Background Lifestyle plays an important role in shaping the gut microbiome. However, its contributions to the oral microbiome remain less clear, due to the confounding effects of geography and...

Special thanks to the all of the participants who volunteered both their samples and time - this study would not have been possible without their contributions, and we hope that they find our observations about their oral microbiomes as interesting as we do! 6/6

We hope that this work contributes to both our understanding of lifestyle and the oral microbiome, and also our understanding of global, understudied populations. 5/6

Finally, smoking habits and type of grain consumed are among the factors associated with these compositional differences. 4/6

In contrast, oral microbiome composition follows a gradient of lifestyles, from foraging to industrialized, a pattern also observed with 9 differentially abundant taxa. 3/6

We find that lifestyle is not associated with microbiome diversity when controlling for geography (specifically within Nepal). 2/6

My first preprint! I; with the guidance and support of @nepaliaashish, @emo_davenport, and many many others; examined the Nepali oral microbiome across a range of lifestyles: https://t.co/iBdy6lDBb4 1/6

Thank you @saugat_optimist for beautifully summarizing our work on gut microbiomes of Himalayan Indigenous Peoples. Grateful to @Nature for providing the platform for this article. This has been a long journey starting in 2006 & continues at @NYUAD_Science

I mis-clicked on one of my 150 open tabs and it happened to be a tab that's been open since 2019 with a paper that has a solution to the exact research problem I've been puzzling over today. This is the moment I've been waiting for and I've decided to never close any tabs again

In @AnnualReviews of Animal Biosciences, @EricaPRyu and @emo_davenport discussed the heritability of the microbiome in animals and how the diversity of microbiome composition can be driven by the varying genetics of the host. More: https://t.co/0kPOjD4eqK
