Funded Activity Summary

The gut microbiota is important for human health and disease but knowledge transfer to clinical practice is lacking. This proposal will investigate how diet & gut microbiota changes connect with physical symptoms, mental health & behavioural issues in chronic diseases, using cystic fibrosis & autism spectrum disorder as models of disease. Improved understanding can improve management, assist in developing targeted therapies & is key to providing real-world solutions to improve outcomes.
