The Microbe Moment of Dr. Devlin; The Gut Microbiome, Their Metabolites, and How to Affect Them

The Microbe Moment With The Microbigals

In this weeks episode of the microbe moment, Jon talks to Dr. Devlin, an associate professor at Harvard medical school. We talk about how her lab researches the gut microbiome, the particular chemicals, including steroids and sterols that the gut bacteria metabolize and how they affect the body, the actions of bile salt hydrolase on bile acids, and compounds that can inhibit some of these enzymes.

You can find out more about Dr. Devlin's research on twitter @DevlinLab or by visiting the labs website here.
