This project explores the relationship between gut bacteria and brain function, specifically focusing on the production of Gamma Amino Butyric Acid (GABA). It aims to determine if gut bacteria can influence GABA levels in the brain and affect behavior through probiotic interventions.
Human beings are over 99% genetically identical.
It seems striking therefore, that 1% of this genetic difference accounts for the large extent of individual variations seen in human behaviour and brain function.
One promising alternative source of individual differences is the resident bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract, which is 40-90% distinct between different individuals.
Bacteria in the human gut outnumber human cells, and account for nearly 10 times as much DNA as that from human cells…
