The relationship between the microbiota, immune system and behaviour

Paul Forsythe from McMaster University, Canada will join the Porto Microbiota 2018 Congress which will be held in October 28-30, 2018, at Porto, Portugal and will talk about "Psycho neuro immunology and gut microbes" during the congress.

Paul Forsythe highlighted: "There is increasing evidence that gut microbes can influence brain chemistry and function, and disruption of the microbiota may contribute to neuro-developmental and mood disorders. However, the mechanisms underlying communication between gut microbes and the brain are complex and still poorly understood. This presentation will focus on the relationship between the microbiota, immune system and behaviour, describing recent experiments that highlight gut microbes as key agents in psychoneuroimmunology."
