We're very happy to release our new database Metalog metalog.embl.de ! It offers manually curated and harmonised contextual data for 110k metagenomics samples across the globe, incl. precomputed taxonomic profiles, for interactive browsing and for download 🧵 1/7

Spending some time in Germany at my parents' place after moving to Bio2Q / Keio University in Tokyo at the beginning of the year. Feels good to contemplate and find that's it was an awesome move.
We have a few open positions at Postdoc level with lots of freedom and resources. DM if interested
Looking forward to reading this! Sounds awesome. Have been thinking about trait-based approaches myself, so hoping this will be something I can build upon

The rare microbial biosphere harbors many chemosensitive microorganisms undetectable by regular shotgun metagenomics. We can now explore them using our custom target-capture sequencing approach. Impressive work by
Claudia Sanchis, part of her PhD thesis!

Thanks for sharing! Looks super interesting. I guess the strain sharing answer is somewhere between different potential sources of strains, different ecology esp for the newborns and a quite conservative cutoff.
Unrelated, but I hope you are well, Tami!

Though it's already a weeks ago, the newest paper from the (old) lab came out.
We explored the drivers of Bifidobacterium longum subspecies dynamics in the infant gut in detail. Still fascinated by the interplay of ecology, metabolic capacity and diet

In the beginning of the year, I moved to the Bio2Q Institute at Keio University in Tokyo (bio2q.keio.ac.jp). Really happy to be here and it's an amazing place to do microbiome research. We are looking for postdocs, so if you're interested please DM or email
