Beschreibung
Intestinal microbiota is known as a key component of gastrointestinal homeostasis and maintenance of intestinal barrier function. Thus, playing an important role in human health.

This project aims to understand the interaction of intestinal microbiota and intestine during aging with a particular focus on the impact of diet and energy bioavailability as factors contributing to aging-associated alterations of intestinal microbiota and intestinal barrier function.
