Preprint update! We've added lots of new data, so please read and share. Our work links the microbiota, microglial development and function, neuronal morphology, and social behavior in a mechanistic arc during early development. 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #Zebrafish #microbiome

The microbiota promotes social behavior by modulating microglial remodeling of forebrain neurons

Host-associated microbiotas guide the trajectory of developmental programs, and microbial dysbiosis is linked to neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism spectrum disorder. Recent work suggests...

My first manuscript as a postdoc is submitted for publication! Check out the preprint, and let me know what you think! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… #AcademicTwitter #microbiome #neuroscience #biorxiv_neursci #bioRxiv

The microbiota promotes social behavior by neuro-immune modulation of neurite complexity

Host-associated microbiotas normally guide the trajectory of intrinsically encoded developmental programs, and dysbiosis is linked to neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder....

A microbiota membrane disrupter disseminates to the pancreas and increases β-cell mass

Microbiome dysbiosis is a feature of diabetes, but how microbial products influence insulin production is poorly understood. Here we report the mechanism of BefA, a microbiome-derived protein that...

GLOBAL HOST RESPONSES TO THE MICROBIOTA AT SINGLE CELL RESOLUTION IN GNOTOBIOTIC ZEBRAFISH biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

GLOBAL HOST RESPONSES TO THE MICROBIOTA AT SINGLE CELL RESOLUTION IN GNOTOBIOTIC ZEBRAFISH

Resident microbes are a feature of vertebrate animals that influence diverse aspects of their biology from tissue development to metabolism. Here we describe transcriptional responses to the microb...

Is bar soap as gross as millennials say? Not really, and we're all covered with microbes anyway theconversation.com/is-bar-s… via @ConversationUS

Is bar soap as gross as millennials say? Not really, and we’re all covered with microbes anyway

Finally, an answer to a long-bubbling question: What works best – bar or liquid soap?

Bacterial immigration and transmission studied in the zebrafish! Awesome study!

How do #bacteria adapt to life in the vertebrate gut? Study in #zebrafish challenges assumptions about importance of the intra-host environment, instead highlighting bacterial immigration and transmission #PLOSBiology bit.ly/2B8Bllz

Come see what WGS has been up to so far this term!
UOWGS@uowgs29 Nov 2018
Join us today at our November board meeting (open to members) in Streisinger 225 from 10:00-11:30 or afterwards for our Member's Lunch in EMU 141 from 12:00-1:30 to hear about what we've been up to and what we have planned in the future! Plus there will be pizza at the lunch!!

Guillemin at #LAMG2018: discussing this @elife paper elifesciences.org/articles/2… found that germ free animals had defects in pancreatic & beta cells development & that some bacteria could restore this defect

A previously undescribed protein produced by certain resident intestinal bacteria induces zebrafish pancreatic beta cell expansion.
