You can learn more about our latest research into the gut microbiome, food and health through a range of exhibitions, talks and events. We’ll be at the Norwich Research Park Day where you can discover with us just how small microbes are. The Clinical Research Facility team will be there too, explaining more about how our clinical trials work.

Plus we’ll be at Food and Farming Day, where you can learn about the role of plants in our diet, and the relationship between our liver, food and our health.

On Tuesday 14 February we’ll be part of the Science Discovery Day at Diss Corn Hall.
