New results from the microbiome group on infant airway microbiome and asthma!
📣New results on the role of the infant airway microbiota in childhood asthma!
We went back to where it all began - the COPSAC2000 cohort - and sequenced 285 samples from 1-year olds 👶, which had hung out in the biobank for 20 years!❄️

In a new study we found that high levels of 25(OH)D in early childhood were associated with a reduced risk of AD, allergy, asthma exacerbations and infections. Our findings suggest vitamin D as an important micronutrient in early childhood.

David Horner MD @DavidHo35999694 presents his study from the COPSAC2010 cohort, which showed that supplementation with fish oil in pregnant women reduced the risk of gastroenteritis (vomiting/diarrhea) for their children.

Wow - a very popular science youtube channel picked up our recent paper. Thanks a lot for the interest and communicating our findings in a fun and engaging way!

Looks like phage diversity is higher in babies than adults. Why? Check out the story behind the paper. It's a four-minute read.

@TCrispr lays out his brilliant paper on phages in childrens gut. I remember once thinking "Wow, we identified a handful of new viral families!". Shiraz and the rest of this group just found +100 new ones 🤯 Check out the brilliant online overview 👇

Happy and proud to share our new results - a massive expansion of viral diversity from the guts of infants, out now in @NatureMicrobiol This is the result of years of exciting work on both sides of the Atlantic funded by @JPI_HDHL: The EarlyVir consortium!
