The #EESMicrobiome in Heildeberg has been a blast! Inspiring talks and top discussions with peers 🤩 and I got to present some of our latest research at the Disease Systems Immunology group regarding 🌱fiber and 🦠 gut microbes!
@events.embl.org
If you missed Dr Chudan Xu's talk on what happens when we don't eat enough fibre, the preprint is now live 👇

What a fantastic #EESMicrobiome conference this week!
It was really inspiring to hear so many excellent presentations, and meet many former colleagues, collaborators, and friends in beautiful Heidelberg.
A big thank you to the organizers for putting this together!
Congrats to ALL #EESMicrobiome poster prize winners!
Our lab member ✨ Gabriel Baldanzi ✨ won the prize with his poster on gut microbiome signature of type 2 diabetes in 3,692 cases and >200,000 controls.
Today wraps up an inspiring week in Heidelberg, Germany at @embl.org for the Human Microbiome Conference, where I shared my first #PostDoc project from @halllab.bsky.social
Thank you to @amiposts.bsky.social for awarding me a travel grant to facilitate attending the conference!

Wrapping up #EESMicrobiome 🦠✨
🎤 Last talk on 'Deciphering the human microbiome with chemistry' by Emily Balskus (Harvard University)
🎉 Congratulations to our poster prize winners – stay tuned for more details on the prizes and a full event report from our conference reporter.
Until next time! 🌍🧫
Meta-analyses, CRC, and microbes in Heidelberg!
@selinpekel.bsky.social presented a poster at #EESMicrobiome
2025, showing how a universal microbiome signature for CRC emerges across cohorts, ages of onset , and sequencing methods.

☀️ It’s a sunny day at 'The human microbiome' symposium and the vibes are just right 😎 #EESMicrobiome
Nothing beats enjoying lunch outdoors, soaking up the late summer sun, and catching up with colleagues between sessions 🌿🍴
🔎 We’re diving into #EESMicrobiome Session 5: Human microbiome epidemiology and associations
🎤 Tim Spector (King’s College London) is in the house with his talk “Large scale population Metagenome and Diet studies: The Predict studies”
From microbes to meals, exciting links are on the table! 🍽️🦠
So many cool presentations and so many new potential papers!
If you want to discuss your future paper in Nature Microbiology, don't forget to catch me around!

☕🍏 Coffee break time at 'The human microbiome' symposium! #EESMicrobiome
Microbes never sleep, but scientists definitely need their coffee 😅 A perfect chance to recharge, chat, and maybe spark the next big collaboration over a fresh cup ✨
Excited to present my work at poster #82 at #EESMicrobiome today! Come round and talk RNA viruses with me
Thank you so much for having me @events.embl.org
What a great conference this has been! We are definitely coming back 🤩
#eesmicrobiome
☀️ Good morning from Day 3 of #EESMicrobiome 🦠
☕🥨 Fuelled by coffee and pretzels, we’re starting strong with Session 4: Microbiome–host interactions in health and disease.
🎤 'Understanding gut-to-host communication to prevent cardiovascular disease' by @fzmarques.bsky.social (Monash University)
🖼️✨ Poster session time at #EESMicrobiome!
It’s like speed dating for science – wander the posters, meet brilliant researchers, and discover fresh ideas (no awkward small talk required)🦠💡
Grab a drink and dive into conversations! Perfect moment for those “Oh hey, I read your abstract!” encounters 👀
Such an engaged audience at #EESMicrobiome with lots of great questions after my talk!
Big thanks to the organisers for inviting me to present some of the teams recent early life #microbiome work.
Conference has been AMAZING so far!
