Author Information

Professor Cryan is a professor at the Department of Anatomy and Neuroscience and APC Microbiome Institute, University College Cork, Cork, Ireland Prof. Gerard Clarke, Ph.D., is a Professor of Neurobehavioral Science in the Department of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Science and a Principal Investigator in APC Microbiome Ireland at University College Cork. His research program includes a focus on translational biomarkers of stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders, the impact of the gut microbiome on brain and behavior across the life span, and microbial regulation of tryptophan metabolism. Key achievements of his lab in the generation of knowledge around the microbiota - gut - brain axis include the demonstration that the gut microbiome regulates the hippocampal serotonergic system in a sex-dependent manner, findings that paved the way for numerous lines of inquiry on the effects of the gut microbiome on neurodevelopment, brain function, and behavior. He is regularly included in Clarivate Analytics Highly Cited Researchers list, placing him among the world’s top one percent of researchers by citation. His current approach is based on advancing frontier knowledge in microbiome research to yield potential new therapeutic targets for the effective treatment of the central nervous system and gastrointestinal disorders.
