The EU-funded research project IMMEDIATE strives to identify individual biomarkers of risk and resilience against chronic inflammation by investigating the diet-microbiome-metabolite-immune axis. This complex interaction refers to how an individual's diet, gut microbiota, metabolites, and immune system can influence their health.
IMMEDIATE will use cutting-edge technologies and clinical and metadata from large observational cohort studies to identify pre-disease stages and further our understanding of the mechanisms and molecular pathways underpinning non-communicable diseases. Furthermore, a proof-of-concept study on healthcare professionals will be conducted to test the effectiveness of a probiotic intervention and ultimately develop mobile apps designed to offer personalized lifestyle recommendations and empower citizens to manage their own health proactively.
