The Quadram Institute is hosting a focus group event with Professor Simon Carding and Dr Cathrina Edwards to discuss our research into how gut microbes and food interact to promote health and prevent disease.

The Quadram Institute is a new centre for microbiome research and endoscopy on the Norwich Research Park with a mission to deliver healthier lives through innovation in gut health, microbiology and food.

We are keen to discuss our research with members of the public, and to get your views and insights to help us shape our future research. You do not need any prior knowledge of research or gut microbes to attend, and you will not be asked to take part in any research as part of the meeting.

The focus group will meet on Friday 4^th October in the new Quadram Institute building near the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital; postcode NR4 7UQ.
