Overview

Humanity’s endeavour to interpret the inner workings of our body’s deeply complex biological ecosystem is ever-evolving. Through this enterprise, we have realised the massive impact that the over 10 trillion microorganisms living inside our bodies have on our health. Considered to be foes or neutral bystanders, at best, since time immemorial, the current research has realised their true potential and the immense impact that these organisms can have on our wellbeing.

These organisms interact with myriad biological pathways inside our body, from influencing the risk of obesity, diabetes, and vitamin deficiencies to even affecting our mental health. Therefore, learning about these microbes and how they impact our lives is essential.

This Microbiome Masterclass will take you on a deep dive into the exciting world of gut microbiome. The course will also help us understand how the gut microbiome is sequenced into user-readable reports using cutting-edge technologies, its interaction with nutrition, and how our diet can modulate and bring about changes in the Microbiome. Importantly, making sense of the genomes of microbes will enable you to bring a new approach to your practice.

So buckle up, and let The Gene Box Academy take you through this exciting journey of the gut microbiome.
