Do you have:

📌 Blood in your poo?
📌 Abdominal pain that won’t go away?
📌 Diarrhoea that can’t wait?

If you have experienced any of these symptoms, you may have a problem with your bowel health.

1. You feel powerless? Don’t know what you can do to resist the rise of fascism?
Here is an answer: Good Things.
Fascism inflicts pain and harm as a matter of doctrine.
Kindness, care and conviviality defend us from it.
The more we build community, the less it can take root.

Model to differentiate intestinal TB from Crohn's disease

Really enjoyed working on this review for Frontline Gastroenterology. How do anti-IL23 therapies work? What’s the evidence for their use in IBD? And is there any guidance on how we should position them in the treatment landscape?

New work on #tuft cells, rare guardians of our #gut against invaders. How they work is not known. We show that intestinal tuft types 1&2 are sequentially expressed phenotypes during differentiation. And…we can now generate mature immune-related tuft-2’s in #organoids for more 🔬🧫🧬🔥

We know everything about IL-33 already, right?

No! In fact we know very little about IL-33 in the colonic epithelium

Our recent paper finds IL-33 is highly enriched in colonic stem cells suggesting an immunoregulatory role for this niche in injury🧵

Yet, it remains unclear how stem cells sense mechanical signals from their niche in vivo. In this work, we ...

The power of spatial information! ILC2s specifically in the middle of the colon express microbiota-induced genes that are important for the structural adaptation of this part of the gut. Loads of spatial data across different states (homeostasis vs inflammation) for the community.

Happy to share the work from my residency at #Charite available as pre-proof version in #Gastroenterology.

We identify Ki67+ memory CD4+ T cells as robust blood-based predictor for non-response to #vedolizumab (anti-integrin a4b7) in #IBD patients before therapy.
