PsychoLAB Talks: Microbes, Minds, and Mental Wellness



🧠🦠Introducing PsychoLAB Talks: Microbes, Minds, and Mental Wellness!🦠🧠

The PsychoLAB Project is excited to launch PsychoLAB Talks, a webinar series dedicated to exploring the science behind microbes, probiotics, the gut–brain axis, and mental wellness.

Through this series, we aim to bring together researchers, students, educators, and science enthusiasts for engaging discussions on the discovery, characterization, and development of probiotics and potential psychobiotics. Topics will span the full research pipeline—from the isolation and screening of promising microorganisms to their evaluation using in vitro assays, in vivo models, and multi-OMICs approaches, including genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and other emerging tools for understanding host–microbe interactions.

Future sessions will also highlight how these complementary approaches can help uncover microbial functions, mechanisms of action, safety, efficacy, and their potential applications in supporting gut and mental wellness.

📣 We officially kick off the series with our 1st Webinar happening on:
đź“… October 22, 2026 (Thursday)
⏰ 9:00 AM – 12:00 NN
