Had a GREAT time chatting with Dr. Marcy Balunas about chemical communication in symbioses on #MattersMicrobial #67. Very inspirational; I'm starting to regret my upcoming retirement. What a time to do microbiology! @BalunasLab @univpugetsound @ASMicrobiology

For somebody working on the gut #microbiome, the responses ("gross", "embarrassment", "pseudoscience", etc.) to this @Nature article on the treatment of C-section babies with their mother’s poo are quite sobering. So, I thought I would provide a perspective in the thread below.
Feeding a baby born by caesarean section milk containing a tiny bit of their mother’s poo introduces beneficial microbes to their gut go.nature.com/48oD7hK
YEAH - my ballot has been received! #MDvotes #trustedinfo2024
AMEN! As I was writing "get out the vote" postcards for @MomsRising in October - I kept thinking of all that women have gone through to just get the right to vote. @senecaprojectus captures it perfectly.
NEW AD🌟 Introducing "American Girl" – a powerful anthem for women as we stand together to reclaim our freedoms at the ballot box! 🗳️💪
Our voices matter. It's time to defeat Trump & MAGA extremism!🇺🇸

Here's my message to young people: you wouldn't let a bunch of old people decide what music you're going to listen to or what clothes you're going to wear – so don't let them decide your future.

Fecal microbiota transplants (FMT) are last-resort treatments for recurrent C. difficile infection. In @mSphereJ, researchers define structural and functional changes associated with a successful FMT to aide development of microbiota-focused therapies. asm.social/28W

On October 9th, I'll be giving a seminar on my career thus far to undergrads and grads in @ASMicrobiology !! I recently joined the Board at ASM, and I'm delighted to share my path through science and advice that helped me.
