Both inside and out, our bodies harbour a huge array of micro-organisms. Although invisbleto us, they play key roles in determining our health, our emotional state, and even our IQ! This seminar course will employ popular science and newspaper readings and videos to inform in-class discussions of how our microbiome has become one of the key issues in discussions of human health. Join me as we learn how to encourage a healthier microbiome to flourish inside us!
