Super interesting! I’m curious what’s considered a “high-fiber” diet for people. Looks like the mice were tested on either no fiber or all carbs replaced with fiber? 🌾VS🍞 #microbiomesky 🧪🦠

If you missed Dr Chudan Xu's talk on what happens when we don't eat enough fibre, the preprint is now live 👇

It was definitely on our list but so many places to visit and so little time!

Guillaume Thibault @gthibault.bsky.social · Sep 2

We were in the UK last April to promote the NAP scheme. We will certainly visit the region again in the near future!

MIT News: news.mit.edu/2024/human-g... — Sharing our new publication in Cell Genomics: cell.com/cell-genomic... about why our human gut microbiome rarely updates its CRISPR defense systems!

Bacteria in the human gut rarely update their CRISPR defense systems

MIT research finds intestinal bacterial interact much less often with viruses that trigger immunity updates than bacteria in the lab. The results will help to assess gut microbiome health.
