Read article - A study by Benjamin Ross, an assistant professor of microbiology and immunology, is featured in an article about his research into the gut bacterial growth in young children with cystic fibrosis. "Our major conclusion was that in CF the microbiome really doesn't change very much, so it's essentially stunted or delayed in its maturation compared to healthy kids, and this failure to mature may contribute to poor health," Ross said.
