Abstract(s)
Collaboration between diferente scientific areas might profundly influence the scientific study of human well-being and the tretament of many diseases. Based on that, this internship was esigned with the goal to explore one of those possible collaborations between Psychology and Biotechnology. These are two scientific áreas in which i share a special interest because it allows having a deeper understanding of the brain and its functions. In fact, this experience allowed me not only to acquire new and essential skills but also to recognize the importance of interdisciplinar research, mainly applied to human well-being and preventive strategies. Within this scope, i was parto f a research project implemented by the HNL and CBQF, to understand the Effect of a probiotic producto, called Kombucha, on the human brain, acting through the “gut-brainaxis”. This research resulted in a internationally refereed scientific publication. This project allowed me to be parto f both laboratories (the HNL end the CBQF), where i was able to acquire scientific skills at various levels and personal skills.
