2/ Bioinformatics sits at the intersection of biology, computer science, and statistics. It’s about understanding biology through data, not just crunching numbers or running software.

Today we report that an engineered skin bacterium, swabbed gently on the head of a mouse, can unleash a potent antibody response against a pathogen. Could lead to topical vaccines that are applied in a cream. @DjenetBousbaine led the charge... @Nature 1/55

Is the future of inflammatory bowel disease therapy immune therapy plus #microbiome therapy?
Here is a patient with ulcerative colitis refectory to 3 biologics treated with fecal microbiota transplantation and vedolizumab.

An unanticipated discovery: the brain suppresses the immune response by producing autoimmune "guardian peptides" that block neuroinflammation, which may be especially important in neurodegenerative diseases

New preprint! 🚨
Working with low-biomass samples means dealing with oxymorons like “positive negative controls” and having fun exploring what got sequenced in blanks. 🕵️♀️🔬
Check out an insightful thread from @NataliiaKuzub who led the study! 🧵👇

🚨 New Preprint Alert 🚨
Happy to share our latest preprint on environmental contamination in gut virome studies. Read it here: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

In contrast to previous reports we found limited predictive value of the gut #microbiome (and #metabolome) for response to biological therapy in #IBD Still small sample sizes but relatively similar to other studies. @GroMicrobiome @umcgmdl @researchumcg
