Excited to share our recent publication in this month's issue of mBio, based on my PhD research. We show that replication of 𝘛. 𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘪 is required to trigger a localized immune response in the brain! 🧠 bit.ly/3TA9ALj

The MinD-Gut lab will open in Jan 2025 at the School of Nutrition and Food Sciences of @LSUAgCenter to investigate the science of microbe and diet interactions in gut-brain connection. Motivated humans to study nutrition-gut-brain communication in the heart of LA come this way


Grad students and postdocs- Registration for the 2025 GRS: Neuroimmune Communication in Health and Disease in Lucca, Italy is officially open! Spots are limited so sign up soon at tinyurl.com/GRSNeuroimmune! @yan_zhaoqi and I look forward to seeing you there! Please RT!


Excited to announce that I was selected by the UC President’s Postdoctoral Fellowship Program and, starting today, am ~officially~ a UCLA Chancellor’s Postdoctoral Fellow!🥳Thank you to everyone who supported me in this especially #UCLARiseToTheChallenge and my PI @pipethero! 🙌🏼

Excited to share this paper in final form, now with more supporting experiments in supplement and main figs! rdcu.be/dH1m5 Many thanks to @PingFan78765311 and colleagues for their hard work and dedication through this journey.

Happy to share new work by @PingFan78765311, @EspeyHannah, Lewis Yu, @GulistanAgirman, @zachlee_2008 & colleagues exploring links between early GI symptoms + risk for PD -- an interesting example of a sex-biased gut-brain GxE interaction! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I couldn’t call myself a microbiologist if I went to Amsterdam and DIDN’T stop at #Micropia. Although I couldn’t find 𝑇. 𝑔𝑜𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑖, I did find another Apicomplexan parasite! Can you tell which one? 👩🏻‍🔬🧫🔬
