.Beneficial Microbes Meeting #BeneficialMicrobesMtg looking for a postdoc interested in discovering and culturing creosote-degrading microbes from woodrats. Email me if you are interested in this cool project. 🐭🦠

Leaving #BeneficialMicrobesMtg feeling inspired by all the amazing microbiology I got to learn about, and the kind, brilliant people I met. Thanks Beneficial Microbes Meeting for a great first post-Covid in-person conference!

We had a great time at Beneficial Microbes Meeting! Lots of cool science, lovely posters from Megan and Laura, saw some fun beetles at the park, acquired a bag of Micromalthids, and introduced the Lindsey labbies to their Irene Newton labbie cousins (?). #BeneficialMicrobesMtg

I presented the last talk of the Beneficial Microbes Meeting #BeneficialMicrobesMtg and thank you for everyone who made this meeting amazing! I met so many new people and learnt about symbionts and their microbiome! Thank you for the photos Suzanne Devkota

.Batbileg Bor: TM7 Saccharibacteria, small bacteria that grow on other bacteria. Associated w/ periodontal disease, corr w/ decr host abundance. Heterogeneity in host susceptibility. Use host pangenomics to find important genes. #BeneficialMicrobesMtg See: nature.com/articles/s4139…

Batbileg Bor gives that last talk of #BeneficialMicrobesMtg TM7 isolated from peat bog, but turns it out it's all over. Small cells with tiny genomes live off other microbes. Associated with periodontal disease, but as disease increases, TM7 increases but microbe host decreases.

.Maia Baskerville (@Hatzios_Lab
): Helicobacter pylori, most common member of stomach microbiome, mostly doesn't cause disease. Induces oxidative stress. Host mitigates, e.g., via glutathione (GSH). H.pylori depletes GSH - how? Not via oxidation. #BeneficialMicrobesMtg

Maia Baskerville is interested in how H. pylori induces persistent host cell oxidation without killing the host cells. However, glutathione depletion is not through oxidation of GSH. Shows this in several different ways, including potential mechanisms.
