Using AI to Analyse Gut Microbiome to Help Everyone

When it comes to health tech, most of us think gadgets, not gut bacteria. But what if the future of medicine isn’t wearable, it’s microbial?

We dive into the cutting-edge world of the gut microbiome with Professor Francis Chan, gastroenterologist, scientist, and co-founder of GenieBiome. From AI-designed probiotics to region-specific gut databases, discover how our microbes could hold the key to tackling everything from long COVID to colorectal cancer, and why the next health revolution might just be growing inside you.

Produced by: Richard Bradbury, Kishan Sivaswamy
