@jbeom_kim I really look forward to trying metabuli !

@AsafLevyHUJI @MoranYassour @JulieSegre @oxcordero Thanks for your great talk!

Had an absolutely fantastic time at #CSHLmbiome with @Isabel_Laforest and dozens of wonderful scientists. Mind-blowing science, beautiful community, awesome location, perfect weather and so many new connexions. Can't wait for next year!

@monaparizadeh @Isabel_Laforest @JTNearing Likewise! Great success to you too

@theo Like saying that cancer is a highly prevalent disease... Cancer is a group of hundreds of distinct diseases
