New articles soon

Hi, so sorry for the hiatus in finding and posting new articles of interest. I have been fairly ill (I am bipolar) for about a year now. I am finding coping strategies and filling in a backlog of work that is overdue, and that has to come before work on this site.

As for Project: Cancer-Fighting Gut Bacteria, the lack of success in getting funding means that I probably am going to simply publish the hypothesis and some preliminary information and let other labs take on the task of investigating it. I’m updating the references in the hypothesis paper I’ve already written and then I will start sending it to journals that might be appropriate.

I am finding more energy as time goes on and I seem to be on a road to recovery, so I hope to be back to posting articles about new work soon. There apparently are a lot of articles discussing probiotics but not issues with how an ingested probiotic might establish, which suggests to me that medical teams are grabbing bacteria and developing projects without talking to microbial ecologists first.

I have a lot to say about that and will be working on that next- a commentary article which will either go here or to whichever journal might take it. There are frankly so many articles on probiotics and the gut microbiome that the breadth of the field is overwhelming. There might already be reviews out on how probiotics can best establish in the crowded gut ecosystem, but I haven’t found these yet. One of the things I hope to do is search for them and publish a summary of the most accessible one I can find.

Thank you for looking at my site and I hope you found something of interest here.

Liz
