Sporty 🏸, curious, and far from cliché: In our #July feature of our #calendar, colleagues Tongta Sae-Ong & Sascha Schäuble share their paths in bioinformatics, love for sports, and why science is as much about people as it is about data: lmy.de/fTKMI #FacesOfScience #LeibnizHKI @mbdlab.bsky.social

In a new @naturemedicine.bsky.social study, 8 weeks of VR training with REVERIE improved working memory, olfaction & altered the gut microbiome in teens with #overweight – without physical exercise. P.S.: We still like exercise though! 🤫 ➡️ Paper: doi.org/10.1038/s415... @mbdlab.bsky.social

World Microbiome Day is coming up! Please check our European Initiative MiccrobioTAckle!

🌍 World Microbiome Day is almost here — June 27! Microbiomes are communities of bacteria, fungi, and viruses that impact our health in huge ways. At MiCCrobioTAckle, we’re researching how the gut microbiome affects cancer cachexia — a serious condition affecting over 80% of cancer patients. 1/n

Our European doctoral Network funded by @horizoneu.bsky.social MiCCrobioTAckle is now on Bluesky! Follow the account to learn about our progress on the gut microbiome and cancer cachexia!

Here we are! MiCCrobioTAckle is a @Horizoneu.bsky.social doctoral network coordinated by @Leibniz-HKI.de. Our goal is to advance research at the intersection between gut #microbiota and #cancer cachexia. Follow us for exciting research! #MSCA #DoctoralNetworks #HorizonEurope

The #MiCCrobioTAckle network held its first on-site training in Jena! 12 PhD researchers learned R basics for #microbiome data at #LeibnizHKI. The EU project explores the gut microbiome’s role in cancer cachexia. 👉 lmy.de/QLhdA 👥 @mbdlab.bsky.social 🌐 www.miccrobiotackle.eu

Gianni Panagiotou and his team @mbdlab.bsky.social in the Cluster of Excellence @microverse.bsky.social examine how the gut #microbiome impacts the development & progression of diseases. Read more in the latest issue of the #UniJena research magazine. ➡️ www.lichtgedanken.uni-jena.de/en/3146/how-...

Our lecture series #MiCoCo is back! On 2 April, Prof. Panagiotou @mbdlab.bsky.social will give a talk on "Colorectal Cancer Through the Lens of Gut Microbial Metabolism". 📍 Lecture Hall Erbertstraße 1 Everyone is welcome!
