Hi all, Pleased to share that NASA Citizen Science selected one of the @MicrobesAWG publications for one of their ‘Unsung Heroes’ stories! Here it is: This Thanksgiving, We’re Grateful for NASA’s Volunteer Scientists! - NASA Science My only wish was that when I submitted a highlight to them for consideration, that I had added all authors!

A new Microbes AWG paper Spaceflight alters host-gut microbiota interactions is out. The study shows \>40 microbiome species altered in mice from (RR6 - amplicon and WMS) during spaceflight, including rare but important (structural zeros) bacteria, and compares changes with colon and liver gene expression. Only the one mission (RR6) but there’s also some fun interactive figures of the metagenomics here (interesting stats implications for Supplementary figure X. MAGs vs Contig Annotation) and so…
