The Gut Microbiome, Metabolites, and Immunity

Abstract: 

Microbiome research now encompasses not only thorough surveys but also mechanistic studies capable of identifying specific molecules that shape host health and susceptibility and 
resistance to disease. This talk will examine how dietary and microbial metabolites interact to either improve anti-tumor immunity or resolve intestinal inflammation. These findings 
demonstrate how decoding the gut’s chemical landscape can unlock precision immunotherapies for colorectal cancer and inflammatory bowel diseases.
