The gut microbiome and chronic pain Pain from conditions such as endometriosis could be alleviated if the gut’s resident bacteria can be understood and tamed.

🚀🔬 Big news in space biology!

I’m excited to share our latest study, just published in npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, with my partner in crime Nick Brereton, McGill University and a fantastic team of international scientists, including those at !

Our research, part of the Nature Portfolio package, “The Second Space Age: Omics, Platforms, and Medicine across Space Orbits”, offers new insights into how space travel affects the gut microbiome:

🔍 Space travel significantly changes the gut microbiome, which could impact immune function and metabolism in space.

🌑 This is crucial for the success of long-term space missions, such as a Moon base or Mars expedition, and helps ensure astronaut health during extended space travel.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in this groundbreaking study from institutions around the world, including McGill University, NASA Ames, Harvard, Cornell, MIT, Blue Marble Space Institute

The journey continues as we explore the next frontier of human health in space and on Earth!

Spaceflight alters host-gut microbiota interactions - npj Biofilms and Microbiomes The ISS rodent habitat has provided crucial insights into the impact of spaceflight on mammals, inducing symptoms characteristic of liver disease, insulin resistance, osteopenia, and myopathy. Although these physiological responses can involve the microbiome on Earth, host-microbiota interactions du...
