A Neuronally Active Bacterial Siderophore Manipulates Host Behavior and Longevity
Aging populations face a growing burden of neurodegenerative disease and behavioral decline. The microbiota is increasingly implicated in host physiology, highlighting an urgent need to understand how gut microbes modulate brain function and late life health. Here, we develop a high-throughput microbe-host screening platform to systematically dissect how bacterial genes shape organismal behavior.…
