If I were to fund a study I think one that I would be most excited to fund would be the Nagao-Kitamoto et al. 2016. The study is titled, Functional Characterization of Inflammatory Bowel Disease–Associated Gut Dysbiosis in Gnotobiotic Mice, and looks into how dysbiosis influence IBD. As a person who has suffered from problems that are associated with IBD I think it is a very informative study that demonstrates a lot of good information about how dysbiosis can effect a person and their overall health. I am hoping in the future more studies will be done in this field in order to understand how a person who is predisposed to IBD could be treated to mitigate its progression.
