Meals, mood and microbes

This drop in activity runs from 12.00 – 17.00
What your meals are made of can change your emotions. It’s all down to your gut microbes and how they work with your brain to create changes in mood. 
Join researchers from the School of Biological Sciences (University of Southampton) to celebrate this lively alliance at our vibrant street festival, with painting, games, plant-based African street food, and music.

Please note this event may involve discussions of mental health and dementia. Please let the staff at this event know of any food allergies if you wish to try the food.
