Diego’s expertise is a rare, but synergistic, blend of nutritional biochemistry, gastrointestinal physiology, and sensory neurobiology. His ambition is to uncover the neural circuits that allow the brain to perceive what the gut senses. Diego believes that this knowledge will serve two purposes: 1: It will be a foundation to treat the brain from the gut, and 2: It will uncover routes through which pathogens may access the brain and cause neurodegenerative diseases.
