Solving problems in the natural world sometimes requires looking within. At the Biodesign Center for Health through Microbiomes, that means studying what we’re (literally) made of — microbiomes.
For example, Professor Rosa Krajmalnik-Brown conducts clinical work on managing autism through microbiota transplant therapy as well as the microbiome’s contribution to energy balance and human metabolism.
Krajmalnik-Brown is just one of many researchers in the Biodesign Center for Health through Microbiomes who are developing microbe-based health interventions and diagnostics. Your gift directly supports our work to build capacity and expertise in microbiome research and create strong clinical and industrial collaborations.
