Thrilled to see this project come to fruition! It has been an outstanding collaboration, yielding numerous valuable findings. Congratulations to all involved!

Happy to share that our study on gut microbiome associations with colorectal cancer (CRC) is out in @NatureMedicine! ( https://t.co/LbCSaGj76P).

In case you missed it - out now in @Nature: Gut microbiome strain-sharing within isolated village social networks @NAChristakis @chocophlan @JacksonPullman1 @mqdicer @ShivkumarVs @DrewPrinster @adarshsingh110 @eairoldi @ilanabrito123 https://t.co/eseD6dDnmB

Ticks make their own bioglue in their saliva to help them attach to and seal skin! It's an IDP, like the freshwater mussel adhesive I previously posted. No data yet on how it compares in terms of performance, so I guess we'll have to make it! https://t.co/0l7Vpo6zUu

The bacteria in your gut depend on where you are in the social network. And the microbes within us treat our social networks as the extended environment in which they thrive. They can spread from person to person. New #HNL work out today in @Nature. 1/

Spatial structure shapes the host-microbiome interactome. Our new method to map the host-microbiome interface at high-res, now on bioRxiv! Co-led with @0707bibi & @dwmckellar collab between the @IwijnDeVlaminck & @ilanabrito123 labs https://t.co/LtzfbccSrP A thread⬇️

I had to write. It's been 2 years since I moved back to India. Here's I what I think about moving abroad. https://t.co/lpIhQ3DJS2

Why are bioinformatics results so full of false positives? I've been thinking about this for a few years: the incentives in the field are to produce false positives (link in next tweet)

Our team's efforts in bio-imaging in live animals has been published on Science. If you are interested in our work, feel free to reach out to me and I am happy to chat and discuss future potentials!

I'm going to keep saying this until someone proves me otherwise: AlphaFold(2, 3, 10000, whatever) or any structure prediction tool will not generalize to protein conformations if its training is optimized to "ground truth" structures in the PDB! Crystallized or cryo-EM structures

To help address the antimicrobial resistance crisis, there are hundreds of very promising antibiotic candidates found hiding in our microbiome https://t.co/WhBLyI63Vw @CellCellPress @delafuenteupenn
