Modeling the Gut Microbiota of Child Populations Sprint

Mondelez, a global food company, is looking for microbiome experts.

Today, TechConnect launches the Modeling the Gut Microbiota of Child Populations Sprint to identify researchers working with child microbiota data and metabolic modeling. Mondelez is exploring how microbiome data can be translated into metabolic models that support future clinical trials and ingredient development.

They are particularly interested in partners who bring:

  • Available data on the digestive tract and gut microbiota of children
  • An established functional model for the digestion and gut microbiota of children OR the ability to create one, preferably in vitro
  • Experience supporting clinical trial development

This sprint will connect qualified experts directly with Mondelez to explore potential research collaborations. If that sounds like you, apply by the deadline, May 4.
