We’re happy to share that our postdoctoral researcher Dr. Eleftheria Charalambous recently presented her latest findings at the World Federation of Societies of Biological Psychiatry (WFSBP) 2025 Congress. Her innovative research focuses on gut microbiome-wide association studies that identify specific viruses linked to mental health and brain aging.

Dr. Charalambous’s work represents a significant advancement in understanding the gut-brain axis, specifically examining how viral components of the gut microbiome may influence neurological and psychiatric outcomes. This cutting-edge research opens new avenues for understanding the complex relationships between our microbial communities and brain health.

These findings from are currently under review for publication. We look forward to sharing more details about this important research as it progresses through the peer-review process.
