11/12 🙏 A big thank you to all my amazing collaborators who made this work possible @blancaps.bsky.social @jayhinton.bsky.social @acdarby.bsky.social (PI) and many of the INTEGRATE consortium not on BlueSky.
Thank you to @nihr.bsky.social for funding via the second HPRU-GI @livuni-ives.bsky.social.

10/12 🔍 This dual-omics approach captures both what pathogens are present and what they're doing, offering unmatched resolution for understanding infectious intestinal disease biology.

9/12 📊 RNA/DNA ratios differed significantly between positive and negative cases, helping distinguish true infection from bystander carriage and providing a molecular readout of microbial activity.

8/12 📦 Critically, RNA in stool remained stable enough for pathogen detection without preservatives (and after self-sample and surviving the mail service!), providing evidence for the routine potential of metatranscriptomics in clinical settings (with some work!)
