Exposure to contaminated environments in areas with poor water and sanitation management often leads to poor gastrointestinal health. This impacts on child health in slum settings, and on internationally mobile populations visiting areas with inadequate sanitation. Via funded collaborative projects, I will perform research among these 2 population groups, together providing better understanding of how environmental exposures impact on the function of the intestine and disrupt human health.

在水和卫生管理差的地区，暴露在受污染的环境中，往往会导致胃肠道健康状况不佳。这影响到贫民窟环境中的儿童健康，也影响到访问卫生条件不佳地区的国际流动人口。通过资助的合作项目，我将在这两个人群中进行研究，共同更好地了解环境暴露如何影响肠道功能和破坏人体健康。
