Dr. Brian Hoffmann was recently awarded a one year MAYO Clinic Metabolomics Resource Core Pilot Grant for his proposal entitled “The Influence of Sugar, Artificial Sweeteners, and the Microbiome on Metabolism”. This study aims to define the metabolic alterations associated with the processing of sugars and artificial sweeteners commonly found in food and to examine how the microbiome (bacteria within the digestive system) influences this process to alter overall health outcomes.
