An interview with José Clemente: “Early life changes in microbiota as a result of C-Section may be responsible for diseases in children later on”
During the 5th Gut Microbiota for Health World Summit 2016 José Clemente, assistant professor at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, talk about the importance of gut microbiota at early life.
Researcher José Clemente, assistant professor at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, investigates whether we can revert the effects of an abnormal microbial colonisation after, for instance, a C-section. He attended the 5th Gut Microbiota for Health World Summit 2016, held in Miami and we had the opportunity to interview him and talk about the importance of gut microbiota at early life. We hope you enjoy the interview.
A new study reveals that a molecule produced by gut bacteria can trigger atherosclerosis, shedding light on why some healthy individuals develop cardiovascular disease.
Emerging studies suggest the gut microbiome may predict how well you age. The world’s oldest person offers scientists new clues into the secrets of healthy aging and protection against the diseases that often plague the final years of life.
In this video interview, Dr. Mireia Vallès-Colomer explains how our microbiome is formed, shared, and transmitted throughout life — and why understanding these microbial connections is key for human and planetary health.
