A pioneering study provides new evidence that gut microbes vary across primate species and can shape physiology in ways ...

The microorganisms in our gastrointestinal tract-the gut microbiome, can exert a profound influence on the human body, and ...

A new study from Northwestern University is reshaping how scientists think about brain evolution. The research suggests that ...

Scientists have discovered 13 new bacteria species in unique foods and environments that could transform health and the environment.

Researchers uncover evidence that the gut microbiome and brain connection can influence brain gene expression and neural ...
