• Nutrition
• Gut physiology
• Microbiota-host crosstalk
Research topics and scientific objectives
• Understand the impact of early nutrition (maternal diet and infant formula composition) on gut physiology and consequences in adults facing an adverse nutritional environment
• Decipher the importance of early bacterial colonization on intestinal homeostasis later in life and relationship with glucose metabolism
