ISAPP Newsletter – July 19, 2020
As an organization, ISAPP aims to spur innovation in probiotic and prebiotic science and to envision the future of the field. This is made possible, in part, by new community members and diverse perspectives: for example, the expertise of new board members as well as the views of ISAPP students and fellows. ISAPP is pleased to highlight some perspectives from these groups in this July newsletter.
We share a newly published paper that emerged from Students and Fellows Association (SFA) discussions at the ISAPP 2019 annual meeting in Antwerp, Belgium. We then share the first blog post from our new board member, Dr. Kelly Swanson.
Also in this newsletter is the ISAPP response to a recent 60 Minutes media segment on probiotics; a summary of a trial that did not find any benefit of a two-strain probiotic combination for reducing antibiotic use in elderly adults in care homes; and a brief history of Bulgarian yogurt from ISAPP blog contributor Dr. Mariya Petrova.
