COMPETING AGENDAS. "Individual members of the microbiota, and consortia of those microbes, have been shown to be highly dependent on the nutritional composition of the diet." https://lnkd.in/es44Vig View in LinkedIn

COMPETING AGENDAS. "Provelella grows best in carbohydrates; dietary fiber provides a competitive advantage to Bifidobacteria, and Bacteriodetes has a substrate preference for certain fats." It is all about ecological balance. https://lnkd.in/es44Vig View in LinkedIn

SEA CHANGE. In the future, foot fungus will be treated by a microbiota cream not a fungal toxin. For example. View in LinkedIn

NEW MANTRA. In the future, acne will be treated by healthy living skin bacteria, not by toxins that kill the pathogenic bacteria. View in LinkedIn

CHANGE THE CHIP. In the future, many diseases will be treated by changing the balance of the microbiota with living medicines. View in LinkedIn

CRYSTALLINE WOOD. "An appreciable piezoeffect has been observed in specially prepared wood sheets of oriented cellulose fibers." https://lnkd.in/ejQXn-P View in LinkedIn

SMARTWOOD. "Oak, pine, spruce, birch, alpha cellulose, and wood pulp are all cellulose-based biopolymers that exhibit shear piezoelectric constants comparable to that of quartz crystal." https://lnkd.in/eKk_wMN View in LinkedIn

SMARTWOOD. "Despite these early studies, however, the potential of cellulose as a smart lightweight material that can be used as a sensor and an actuator has not been fully explored." https://lnkd.in/eKk_wMN View in LinkedIn

PROGRAMMABLE WOOD. "As a naturally occurring biopolymer, cellulose is a type of electroactive polymer (EAP). EAPs, also termed artificial muscles due to their operational similarity to biological muscles refer to a class of materials that has received much attention in the past 10 years." https://lnkd.in/eKk_wMN View in LinkedIn

CELLULOSE has a "unique set of promising characteristics such as large strains in response to an electric stimulus, low density, ease of processing, and good mechanical properties." https://lnkd.in/eKk_wMN View in LinkedIn
