What an awesome #GutBrainAxis symposium at #PNIRS2025 in Bordeaux! Huge honor to co-chair with @elimelb.bsky.social and share the stage with Frank Duca and Allen Lab’s own Elisa Caetano-Silva. Incredible science and even better people. Thanks to everyone who joined us!

Exciting to see this breakthrough work in prostate cancer treatments led by @drcamkkinase.bsky.social @monashuniversity.bsky.social and @pseudokinase.bsky.social @wehi-research.bsky.social published today! @pnas.org @heraldsun.bsky.social

In a world where every life counts, our research holds the promise of a healthier tomorrow. #ImpactInAction 🧪 🧬 🔬 💊

Game, set, debate: why do women only play 3 sets in tennis?

Thirty years ago, the Australian Open looked at introducing five-set tennis for women, an experiment that ultimately never took place.

Very important work! Establishing a developmental baseline for the infant microbiome across the globe 🌍 🦠 great to see 🦠

Very exciting findings that gut microbes drive sugar consumption via a FGF21, GLP-1 and FFAR4-mediated mechanism. A potential game changer for nutritional science and diabetes. 🥇

Free fatty acid receptor 4 modulates dietary sugar preference via the gut microbiota - Nature Microbiology Bacteroides vulgatus, a gut bacterium, promotes GLP-1 secretion through its metabolite, pantothenate, inhibiting sugar preference in mice.

Host metabolism balances microbial regulation of bile acid signalling - Nature A family of host-derived bile acid–methylcysteamine conjugates functions as FXR antagonists, forming part of a microbiota-dependent metabolic network that regulates FXR-dependent physiology.

In the words of #valtteri bottas “what’s next?” Planning 2025 over coffee #melbourne #australia don’t look too closely at that green fluffy lawn

It was great to host @rancillac.bsky.social - who already submitted a very large number of publications for 2025!!! It was a very productive scientific visit despite some harmless sliders, roadside attractions, fires 🔥 and auroras 💫💫

The best office ever! #Australia

Gisele Pelicot walks past hundreds of cheering women, some holding signs saying "Merci Gisele", outside the court where her husband and 50 other strangers were tried for raping her while she was drugged.

And they say an image is worth a thousand words.

As an amateur videographer I sat in a fireside chat with Prof Tracy Bale, #IBRO president @thebalelab.bsky.social and co-chief editor of Neurosience, Prof Sarah Spencer @sjspencerlab.bsky.social at #ANS2024!!!

I had the privilege and fun of chatting with the fabulous #IBRO president, Prof Tracy Bale, @thebalelab.bsky.social at the #ANS2024 meeting in Perth. Check out her thoughts on Australian science and the IBRO presidency role. Thx to @elimelb.bsky.social on camera.

A pleasure! And @sjspencerlab.bsky.social and I look forward to catching up again at future IBRO/neuroscience events! ⭐️

Incidentally kept getting questions about whether my family owned the hotel bar (Hill St, Perth) - we do not 🥂

It was great to meet! Congratulations on the excellent work! 🤓 maybe a coffee in our hometown of Melbourne sometime is in order ☕️

Also at ANS Perth, it was fabulous to have a fireside chat with #IBRO president Prof Tracy Bale @thebalelab.bsky.social *thanks @sjspencerlab.bsky.social
I’ll link to the interview when it’s up!
