The gut-brain connection
The gut-brain axis is one of the most exciting areas in microbiome science, but its clinical value depends on careful interpretation. In this webinar, Dr Miguel Toribio-Mateas will explore how healthcare practitioners can use microbiome testing to support clinical reasoning around mood, cognition, stress, inflammation and gut-brain communication.
Drawing on clinical neuroscience, nutrition science and applied microbiome research, Miguel will examine key microbial patterns, including diversity, short-chain fatty acid production, gut barrier integrity, immune signalling and microbial metabolites. The session will translate the evidence into practical nutrition and lifestyle strategies, including fibre diversity, fermented foods, polyphenols, prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics and synbiotics.
Rather than treating microbiome results as a standalone answer, this session will show how they can be understood as part of a wider clinical picture, helping practitioners move from data to meaningful, personalised care.
