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
Takes after his mum obviously!
Happy @WMicrobiomeDay. I have interviewed Michael Murphy-Walter for some expert advice on how to feed your #microbiome.

This Cell paper on the 'cancer microbiome' repeats all the mistakes that gave us the so-called 'fetal microbiome'. Inadequate contamination controls, no culture data, no microscopy. And is it really ecologically plaucible that 165 genera colonize tumors?

Great occasion for my 1st tweet! Proud contributor to this @Nature perspective on the ongoing debate questioning a fetal #microbiome. With 46 experts in #microbiome #science and related disciplines, we assess the evidence. The answer, an unambiguous ‘No’ bit.ly/3XF4ePg

Expert analysis refutes claims humans are colonised by bacteria before birth. @Pharmabiotic Prof @JensWalter15 and a global team of leading experts evaluated the evidence for microbes in human foetuses.

Innate Immune Responses to Human Gut #Microbiota from Phylum to Strain: @MatthewSpindl13 @jeremiahfaith1 examine how innate immune system responds to 277 human gut commensal #bacterial strains. Taxa induce signatures w/predictable immune phenotypes in mice cell.com/cell-host-microbe/f…
Supercool 👀
One of my all-time favourites. Stare at the red dot on the woman's nose for 30 seconds, then look at an empty wall while blinking quickly. Promise it's worth it... bit.ly/2UbzN7W

Gut bacteria linked to cognitive dysfunction. Age-related shifts in gut #microbiome increase isoamylamine (IAA) in humans. Same shifts in mice cause cognitive decline via S100A8. Blocking IAA binding to S100A8 promoter reverses memory/learning loss in mice cell.com/cell-host-microbe/f…

6 years ago I joined a 20-person startup.
I wanted to quit after my first week, but didn't.
Now our company is worth over $1B and has 200+ employees.
Here's what I've learned about succeeding at a startup:
