Discover the healing potential of the trillions of microbes that make up our gut microbiome. These microorganisms hold the key to pioneering innovative medicines designed to prevent and treat chronic conditions, including irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, diabetes, and obesity. Dr. Spencer and a team of collaborators are building the tools, facilities, and clinical trials necessary to safely develop, test, and deliver new microbiome-based treatments to those who need them most.
