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.

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.

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:

A year ago, a non-academic friend listened to a talk I gave. I thought it went great. My friend disagreed.
She said that academics are experts at making interesting stuff boring—and that we should all take a speech class.
So I did. And here are 6 most useful things I learned.

Specifically looking for nice family hotel recommendations!
Thanks!
