Biography

Moudy Bin Saleh a PhD student at Newcastle University. My research focuses on understanding the impact of Microsporidia on epithelial cells in the presence of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and how this interaction may contribute to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). I am particularly interested in hostmicrobe interactions, molecular microbiology, and gut health. My work involves molecular techniques such as PCR and eDNA analysis to detect and study Microsporidia in IBD patients. Through my research, I aim to uncover new insights into the role of Microsporidia in gut inflammation and disease progression.
