Discrete patterns of microbiome variability across timescales in a wild rodent population (2023)
Journal Article
Fenn, J., Taylor, C., Goertz, S., Wanelik, K. M., Paterson, S., Begon, M., …Bradley, J. (2023). Discrete patterns of microbiome variability across timescales in a wild rodent population. BMC microbiology, 23(1), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12866-023-02824-x

Mammalian gastrointestinal microbiomes are highly variable, both within individuals and across populations, with changes linked to time and ageing being widely reported. Discerning patterns of change in wild mammal popula- tions can therefore prove... Read More about Discrete patterns of microbiome variability across timescales in a wild rodent population.

Early‐life immune expression profiles predict later‐life health and fitness in a wild rodent (2023)
Journal Article
Wanelik, K. M., Begon, M., Bradley, J. E., Friberg, I. M., Taylor, C. H., Jackson, J. A., & Paterson, S. (2023). Early‐life immune expression profiles predict later‐life health and fitness in a wild rodent. Molecular Ecology, https://doi.org/10.1111/mec.16950

Individuals differ in the nature of the immune responses they produce, affecting dis-ease susceptibility and ultimately health and fitness. These differences have been hypothesized to have an origin in events experienced early in...
