Check out our new paper published @cellhostmicrobe! Lithocholic acid (LCA) is a metabolic toxin decreased by bariatric surgery. Taurodeoxycholic acid, which is increased by surgery, inhibits LCA production by microbes and has metabolic benefits. authors.elsevier.com/a/1jTSj……

We're very excited to share that our paper on the 21-dehydroxylation of steroids is online in @CellCellPress today! Read how flatulence drives bacterial production of allopregnanolone, an FDA-approved drug for postpartum depression. Full-text here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1j8j7…

Please share! The Devlin lab is looking for postdoc fellows. Candidates with experience in either 1) tissue culture & cell-based assay development or 2) analytical chemistry, biochem, or organic chem. are encouraged to visit our lab website & email Prof. Devlin directly. (1/2)

Earlier this week we said ~see you later~ to one of the OG Devlin lab postdocs, Snehal Chaudhari, as she embarks on her journey as an Assistant Professor at @UWBiochem! We are so proud of her but we’ll miss her big time 😭

Long overdue, but our first grad student @microbe_megan just defended her thesis in May!🤩 She also just gave an AMAZING talk at #bbm2023 @BostonBacteria on her thesis work. 🎉 What an exciting couple of months!

A little late to this, but last month, Melissa Tran joined our lab! Melissa is a 2nd year PhD student in the BBS program (@BBS_Harvard).

The Devlin lab is looking for postdoctoral fellows. Candidates with backgrounds in chemical biology, cell biology, chemistry (particularly analytical chemistry/mass spectrometry), or microbiology are encouraged to visit our lab website and email Professor Devlin directly. (1/2)

We are excited to welcome Jasmine Walsh (@jasminetwalsh) to the lab! Jasmine is a first year PhD student in the Chemical Biology program (@chemical_phd).

We finally got a chance to post our lab inclusivity posters! Modified the beautiful design design by @SammyKatta with some microbe illustrations by @BioRender. You can find the posters both outside and inside the lab!

We’re excited to be virtually attending the #HCMPH2020 Human Microbiome Bioactives Symposium! Sloan gave a talk this morning and we’re looking forward to the other talks this afternoon. – at Brookline, MA
