Building bacteria to keep us well
Nov 12, 2021 (Nanowerk News) That feeling in your gut? Well, it’s in your head, but some of it does truly start in the gastrointestinal tract. Some of the trillions of bacteria living in your gut — among viruses, eukaryotes and archaea — synthesize some of the neurotransmitters that are...
