Episode 3: "Das Mikrobiom"

How does our gut microbiome influence the effect of drugs?

In the third episode of our podcast “Inside CMFI: Potenziale der Mikrobiomforschung”, we go into the security area of the M3 building in Tübingen. The three Ms stand for malignoma, metabolome and microbiome - in other words, research into malignant tumors, metabolic processes and microbiomes. And we take a closer look at the gut microbiome.

Lisa Maier, member of the CMFI board and the Interfaculty Institute of Microbiology and Infection Medicine (IMIT) at the University of Tübingen, has been researching the gut microbiome for over ten years. She wants to understand how the microbiome and drugs interact. To this end, she has tested the interactions with around 1200 drugs.

Her results show some surprising consequences for our health.

Listen in now!

 

 

 

In the podcast “Inside CMFI”, we dive into the groundbreaking research of the CMFI at the University of Tübingen. Our experts share their knowledge about the world of microbes and talk about the discoveries in microbiome research.

Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest problems of our time. The development of resistance is overtaking us and we are in danger of falling back into a post-antibiotic era.

How can we fight bacteria that have become resistant to antibiotics? And what new antibiotic agents are needed for this?

Researchers from the Cluster of Excellence “Controlling Microbes to Fight Infections” (CMFI) are addressing these questions. In the podcast “Inside CMFI”, the CMFI experts talk about the exciting aspects of their research and how we might win the fight against upcoming antimicrobial resistance.

For all those who are passionate about science: This podcast offers exciting insights into current research findings and shows what we can learn from nature in the fight against antibiotic resistance in order to develop novel therapeutic approaches.

Concept: Malte Hennig and Leon Kokkoliadis
