Thank you @cp-cellchembiol.bsky.social for featuring us!

Super excited to share this story I completed in @elizgrice.bsky.social towards the end of my postdoc! Here we colonized germ-free mice with 50 unique bacterial species that represent the skin microbiome. Also my first paper as assistant professor @WashU!

Skin metatranscriptomics reveals landscape of variation in microbial activity and gene expression across the human body The skin microbiome plays an important role in immune homeostasis and skin health, and yet our understanding of in vivo microbial gene activity is hindered by the lack of a robust, non-invasive protoc...

Can't say enough great things about Innovations in Wound Healing 2024 meeting, but one of my favorite parts was catching up with fellow Segre lab post-doc alumni @cdgstrong21.bsky.social and Julia Oh!

I've been lurking on here checking it out for the past few days, love the vibes so let's do this! I'm a professor at UPenn #Dermatology, I ❤️ #microbes + #skin. A lot has happened since I ditched the other site, but the #skinmicrobiome lab is still going strong. Can't wait to catch up w. everyone 😊

We do! We keep everything. Happy to send you a stab if you DM me your address to send!

Hi Jan! Could you please add me? Thx!!
