Translational microbiome research and FMT

Описание к видео Translational microbiome research and FMT

Arjan Narbad from the Quadram Institute talks about his group's research interests in the microbiome. The aim of this research is to understand ways in which we might be able to manipulate gut microbes to prevent infection and combat disease. Working with the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, Arjan and his team have been successfully treating Clostridium difficile infections using faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). This involves taking faecal material from a healthy donor, screening it, and transplanting it into a patient suffering from recurrent C. difficile infections.
