New in @mSystems We followed 20 Bangladeshi infants for 2 years. Microbiota maturation followed conserved trajectories, but with population-specific signatures. Illness caused transient setbacks, and several taxa shifted during the COVID-19 period. 🌍 journals.asm.org/eprint/X983J...

🚨 New paper in Eurosurveillance - @karatasmustafa.bsky.social We used shotgun metagenomics on indoor air in a Belgian daycare to track respiratory, enteric & skin viruses. 👉 40/42 samples contained human viruses—even when kids seemed healthy! 📄 Read here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41000028/

New paper out! We sampled indoor air for a year in a Belgian daycare and used shotgun metagenomics to track viruses. We recovered many viral genomes of interest. What would you sample next? Read at @eurosurveillance.org @emmanuel-microb.bsky.social, @jellematthijnssens.bsky.social -->

💩🦠 Happy to present our paper on the engraftment of the enteric #virome in #UC patients receiving an #FMT-> temporal (~5 weeks) virome shift towards the healthy donor, primarily driven by #microviruses. @daanjansen.bsky.social @raeslab.org pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40371968/

14 years of rotavirus A surveillance: unusual dominance of equine-like G3P[8] genotype with DS-1-like genotype constellation after the pandemic, Belgium, 2009 to 2023
Introduction Despite vaccine availability, rotavirus persists as a leading cause of gastroenteritis in children younger than 5 years. Aim We aimed to evaluate temporal changes in rotavirus epidemiolog...
