Afternoon in the science basement: Shedding light on your gut microbiota with a novel biosensor

The Science Basement would like to invite you to listen and interact during an Afternoon in the Science Basement. The next speakers of the monthly Fall series, The IGEM Team, from the University of Helsinki and Aalto University will present their work, ‘Shedding light on your gut microbiota with a novel biosensor’

We live in a world with many microbes, they even live in our guts (scientists call these microbes: gut microbiota). Our gut microbiota, consisting of various species of bacteria and fungi, is associated with a variety of diseases for which the mechanisms are still unclear, including mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. The Aalto-Helsinki 2021 iGEM team designed a biosensor called Gutlux, which allows scientists to explore the connections between gut microbiota and mental health. This biosensor works by detecting individual compounds produced by the gut microbiota and potentially associated with a specific state of health.
