Did you know?

Our Gastrointestinal System is home to a wonderful selection of microbes starting from the oral cavity!

With 5 days left until World Microbiome Day, today’s focus will be on the Gastrointestinal System!

Stay posted for fun facts and learn what we're doing at the MRC for our human microbiomes.

@MathewLeonardi @Sydney_Uni @GeorgeCondous Congratulations Mathew! A huge inspiration to many 🎉

[Mathew Leonardi MD PhD 🏳️‍🌈 @MathewLeonardi]

#endometriosis is a full body condition
It affects people assigned female at birth; hence, it gets ignored far too easily

There is too much focus on hormonal treatments & not enough on PROPER diagnosis & multimodal care, inc surgical

I will not stay quiet #endowarrior

Our review makes a mention in the latest blog by Endometriosis Australia on endometriosis and the microbiome! @MathewLeonardi @ChloeJ_Hicks @emadelomar @GeorgeCondous #Endometriosis #micorbiome @MRC_microbiome

[Endometriosis.org @Endometriosis]

As long as research into #endometriosis is so chronically underfunded, we won’t be able to truly determine sub-types of disease and, consequently, understand which type of diagnosis and treatment works best (or works at all) for which type of disease https://t.co/D1WtR6FHcW

Specific foods play an important role in the aetiology of IBS symptoms. This new pilot study provides some evidence that food-related salicylates may influence the genesis of symptoms in a subset of patients with IBS https://t.co/3AiNRPVDCC

Really delighted to share our new systematic review looking at dietary intake in IBD patients https://t.co/lNd0X86WgD
Led by the amazing Kelly Lambert @drkellylambert a fab collaboration and can't wait to add Australian data from the AIM Study
