What do others think of this? I’m sceptical of any universal #microbiome signature. In this case they focus on genomes which “were detectable in more than 75% of the samples”. This seems very high to me but they found hundreds of genomes which met this threshold?

BTW I’m not trying to dunk on this. Genuinely trying to learn. I might have misunderstood sometime. I mean it’s a Cell paper so obviously super impressive.

Exercise mitigates a gut microbiota-mediated reduction in adult hippocampal neurogenesis and associated behaviours in rats Great to see this out - Congrats @_Sarah_Nicolas @yvonnemnolan and all nature.com/articles/s41398-0…
Thrilled to see my @IrishResearch postdoc project investigating the interaction between the gut-microbiome and exercise published today in @Transl_Psych - with Sebastian, @AonghusLavelle @JaneAEnglish @Thomazsan @jfcryan @yvonnemnolan - @AnatNeuroUCC nature.com/articles/s41398-0…

Are people considering any other platforms for keeping up with the literature? I’m finding it increasingly difficult to justify being on here but I enjoy doing this
