Baby Got Gut
Hi Everyone! Welcome to the inaugural episode of PETRI DISH. In this episode, Sean and Nathan discuss what is living inside you -- the wonderful and ever-expanding world of the gut microbiome. The microbiome seems to affect things ranging from obesity and diabetes of Alzheimer's and allergies, and we do our best to dip our toes into the big scientific ideas involved in this microscopic world. We'll be trying to use these episode notes to include some reading, if people are feeling scientifically inclined! *The Hologenome Concept: Human, Animal and Plant Microbiota Rosenberg, Eugene; Zilber-Rosenberg, Ilana https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783319042404 *Abnormal gut microbiota composition contributes to cognitive dysfunction in SAMP8 mice Zhan, Gaofeng et al https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6046237/
