Investigating the role of microbiome in nutricosmetic induced changes in wellbeing and cortical activity

BBSRC认为，基本的生物科学知识及其有效的翻译是提高个人在一生中过上更健康生活的能力的关键，并减轻医疗体系的压力。了解肠道-大脑-皮肤相互作用的生物学基础，以及与压力和幸福感的联系，将有助于未来的努力，通过帮助了解在压力下保持健康和健康的因素，最大化健康生活的好处。该项目将通过研究心理因素如何对人类微生物群的调节以及这种联系的双向影响来帮助我们理解正常生理学和动态平衡控制的潜在机制。这可能会导致针对皮肤病的新的非药物干预措施

BBSRC believe that 'basic bioscience understanding, and its effective translation is key to increasing the ability of individuals to lead healthier lives over their life course, reducing pressure on the healthcare system.' Understanding the biological underpinnings gut-brain-skin interactions, and associations with stress and wellbeing will assist future efforts to maximise the benefits of healthy living by helping to understand factors that maintain health and wellness under stress. The project will contribute to our understanding of the mechanisms underlying normal physiology and homeostatic control by investigating how mental factors can contribute to human microbiome modulation, and the bi-directionality of this association. This will potentially lead to novel non-pharmacological interventions for skin conditions
