      Hey,

      I am not working with people with motor neurone disease, because I am mainly a marine scientist. I think a lot of great scientists are researching this disease and are working on treatments.

      I don’t think any of my work helps people with motor neuron disease, I’m afraid. Motor neuron disease wouldn’t be helped by looking at gut bacteria, it’s a problem with the parts of your brain that handle things like movement and speech, and has very little at all to do with what lives in your intestines. Sorry 🙁
