Wouldn’t it be amazing if Boris Johnson resigned and Trump was impeached in the SAME WEEK? – at North Bethesda, MD

Seeing a positive growth in the presence of #womeninscience here at #GutMicrobiome 2019 — four (out of ten) speakers today are #WomenInSTEM! I am honored to be among them and look forward to seeing more leaders in microbiome arise.

Dr. Ruchi Mathur talking about how stool is not the right place to look for gut microbiome, & collecting samples from the small intensite directly #GutMicrobiome #gutmicrobiome2019 – at Huntington Beach, CA

The ever-entertaining.@jfcryan pointing out that there may be a microbial solution to the midlife crisis... instead of getting that 🏍, add some good stuff to your diet. #GutMicrobiome

Highly entertaining & all-expansive talk from @gilbertjacka on the role of microbiome in health - from dogs as microbial vectors to the future of smart toilets... #GutMicrobiome

To anyone thinking of spending money on stool testing to guide their healthcare decisions, buyer beware. It’s a takeaway lesson from the annual #GutMicrobiome meeting. Not much you can do with it for a variety of reasons. “It’s not actionable data.” ~@AliRezaieMD (and more)

.@AliRezaieMD talking about the only FDA-approved gut microbiome-modulating treatment, rifaximin, and the role of gas production by the microbiome in diseases like #SIBO #GutMicrobiome – at Huntington Beach, CA

Listening to .@GabrielaGSLeite makes me want to go back to school and retake my microbiology classes. So smart teaching us about Hydrogen Sulfate, Bacteria, the difference between the Microbiome of small bowel and large intestine. #SIBO Future of Breath testing #GutMicrobiome

Sulfate-reducing microorganisms 🦠 have nervous system, cardiovascular and immune system implications but have only been studied as having a role in human health since 1996. .@GabrielaGSLeite takes us through the past twenty years of research and beyond. #GutMicrobiome

#gutmicrobiome Dr Ismagilov shows that in some circumstances the microbiome could flip into a state where it is stuck. This may have implications in human disease. Hard to fix and get back to normal.

The complex relationship between the #gutmicrobiome and perinatal (pregnancy and post-partum) mood and anxiety disorders is being addressed in studies by .@UNC_SOM’s Mary Kimmel. Early studies show women w/history of anxiety have lower microbial diversity.

Closing out the 5th #GutMicrobiome conference with .@MarkPimentelMD who shares the up-and-coming advancements in microbiome sampling, testing and treatment. And the failures we’ve seen this year.

Always one of the most animated and impactful speakers,@gilbertjacka, opens day 2 of #GutMicrobiome with a holistic approach combining the fields of ecology & medicine. Reminder from him, “everything touches everything.” And we just learned ghost stories may be microbe-driven. 😱

.@ArthurTorchio discusses the intricate work that her group does on the shifting gut microbial community under inflammed or cancerous conditions. Some of those microbes 🦠 travel with metastasis. And the implications are both interesting and scary. Amazing! #GutMicrobiome

I’m already hearing what a great job my grad student, Taylor Tibbs, did giving an oral presentation at Duke Innate Immunology Symposium today! Congrats Taylor!
