Congrats to the four VKC lab graduates, Nina Zhang, Meredith Swanson, Sally Song, and Trisha Rahman (unfortunately not in the photos). I'm so proud of you, I already miss you, and I cannot wait to read and hear about your next big achievements!
Our work on codevelopment of the infant gut microbiome and visual circuitry is finally out! Dream team: @kevinbonham.com @gfahurbottino.bsky.social @laurelgd.bsky.social @emma-margolis.bsky.social Kirsty Donald and Khula South Africa study team! Check it out: doi.org/10.1128/mbio...
Cool things happen when you partner up w/ @zymoresearch.bsky.social. My undergrad course in microbio’s Adopt-a-microbe assignment resulted in @wellesley.edu student Sophia Shin’s card being selected to go into the 2025 deck of Mighty Microbe cards!!
Several labs are collaborating on this project - my, @stevenbiller.bsky.social, Rachel Stanley, Alden Griffith, and Dan Brabander’s. Huge thanks to WC Paulson Initiative for funding the equipment!
