Description:
In this talk Dr. Young will review the current research understanding of the biggest factors that affect the early development of the microbiome in infants, with particular attention to dietary and modifiable factors that could alter an infant’s gut flora.  She will also briefly review the potential health ramifications of developing a suboptimal microbiome, and draw larger conclusions about how lessons from infants can be applied to a broader patient population.
