The National Institute of Health (NIH) is providing a grant to explore the biological activity of low molecular weight compounds produced by the microbial metabolism of dietary phytochemicals. This initiative aims to identify the commensal bacteria responsible for producing these compounds and understand their interaction with biological systems. Researchers are encouraged to investigate the biological signatures of these metabolites in animal models. The closing date for applications is March 19, 2018.

| Description: | Evidence is building that low molecular weight compounds, derived from interaction of dietary constituents and other natural products with the microbiome, have important biological activity in animal models. This initiative seeks to characterize the compounds produced by microbial metabolism of dietary phytochemicals, identify the commensal bacteria responsible for their production and establish the biological signatures that define their interaction with a biological system. |
