As scientists learn more about the microorganisms that colonize the body — collectively called the microbiota — one area of intense interest is the effect that these microbes can have on the brain. A new study led by Salk Institute scientists has identified a strain of E. coli bacteria that, when living in the guts of female mice, causes them to neglect their offspring.The findings, published January 29, 2021, in the journal Science Advances, show a direct link between a particular microbe and…
