Gloria Fackelmann Dr. Gloria Fackelmann just gave a very interesting talk about microplastics and microbiomes in seabirds and Daphnia! 🐦🦠

Kevin Kohl KevinDKohl just gave a really interesting talk about how microbiomes can help tadpoles tolerate higher temperatures and FMT be used in captive artificial rearing of whooping cranes. 🐸🐦

Candace Williams just gave a great talk about microbiomes and phytoestrogens in rhinos. 🦏🦠 Dr. Candace Williams

Interested in functional omics approaches for wild animal microbiomes? See this review preprint, by several members of the WAME team!

Why do different mammals host different gut bacteria? Limited bacterial transmission between species might be key #phylosymbiosis #gut microbiota evolution #specificity

It was a pleasure speaking w/ Matt Simon about our research linking #microplastics in wild #seabirds w/ their #gut #microbiome & what this could mean for #health esp following the coining of #plasticosis - a disease in seabirds caused by #plasticpollution
