The past two decades have witnessed a global expansion of research into the gut-immune-brain axis (GIBA).
A new UK Gut-Immune-Brain Axis Network+ (GIBA Network+) is aiming to build a vibrant, diverse and interdisciplinary UK-wide research community to advance the mechanistic understanding of GIBA across the life-course, and its modulation by lifestyle and other factors. The Network will deliver networking opportunities to facilitate closer collaborative relationships between diverse disciplines, signposting existing UK infrastructure and resources, with a strong focus on an inclusive and positive research culture that particularly fosters the development and visibility of early-career researchers.
Researchers and stakeholders from all disciplines and backgrounds are invited to join the launch event taking place on 22 September 2025 in Southampton. Visit their event registration page to find out more.
