- Excited to share new work by Guli Agirman + co that identifies a direct mechanism linking gut microbial imidazole propionate to stress! 🧠🦠 Btw this image was made by Nano Banana Pro 🍌. First time I've gotten a model to accurately generate a science graphic 🤯 authors.elsevier.com/a/1mA5M6t8JE...
- Happy to share this paper in final form rdcu.be/eH8tj, with more info on neuronal responses and potential mechanism of actions! The results suggest that there is neural interoception of microbial metabolic state 🧠🦠 We hope they can inspire more work in this area!
- Delighted to share this perspective piece by Lewis Yu on microbial regulation of serotonin and neuroimmune interactions. Looking forward to sharing more on this topic soon 🤞 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

- Thrilled to share this collaborative work by Kristie Yu, Francis Chandra, Amina Schartup and teams @Scripps_Ocean and @UCLA showing that an engineered gut bacterium can be used to reduce the neurotoxic effects of dietary methylmercury www.cell.com/cell-host-mi...
- This all began with a chance meeting at Scialog meeting by @RCSA1—think science speed-dating with rapid seed funding- a fun and impactful way to advance new ideas. Thanks to @RCSA1 for supporting collaborative, interdisciplinary research & making this work possible! newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/red...
