We are pleased to announce that Mateusz Szudzik from the Medical University of Warsaw, Poland, has won the Best Poster Presentation Award (2) at the Targeting Microbiota 2024 Conference.

Award Winning Poster: 

Their study investigates indoxyl sulfate (IS), a gut microbiome-derived uremic toxin, and its impact on lipid metabolism in rats. Findings reveal that IS increases total cholesterol, LDL, and triglycerides levels while altering key gene expressions in the liver, suggesting IS as a potential therapeutic target for hyperlipidemia.
