About 2 years ago I signed up for an on-line class on the microbiome through Coursera. After a few weeks of thinking about billions of microbiota on my skin, hair and in my gut, I was so grossed out, I dropped the course. But occasionally, I do fall for a good looking blog on the topic, like NextGenMedicine written by a University of Illinois grad, Lucy Mailing. Now the latest blog edition explains why she isn’t going to go on with her MD as she had originally planned, and has chosen a PostDoc. What is interesting in today’s edition is she lists all the wrong reasons she originally thought were good reasons, but she’s changed in the gap year. Most interesting reason not to go to medical school was she had a full ride scholarship and that was influencing her decision.

Look through the slides of a 2019 presentation by Lucy. “Modulating the gut microbiome for health: Evidence-based testing & therapeutic strategies”
