With this professional master’s degree, you will know in depth the advances in microbiota, and the clinical use of probiotics and prebiotics in multiple pathologies"

The Human Microbiota undergoes changes as a consequence of the influence of multiple factors, including diet, lifestyle or pharmacological treatments, which generate alterations in this bacterial ecosystem. This abnormal interaction that the organism could have with it is related to certain processes: allergic, acute and chronic intestinal diseases, obesity and metabolic syndrome, neurological diseases, dermatitis and other alterations in the dermis and even some types of cancer. It is, therefore, common that behind certain ailments or pathologies there is an imbalance in the balance of the Human Microbiota. 

Large laboratories and research centers have promoted lines of research in this field, as well as the creation of increasingly effective and precise probiotics and prebiotics applied for the prevention and treatment of certain pathologies. A peak moment in the study and advancement of the Human Microbiota, to which the physiotherapy professional cannot be alien. 

That is why TTECH Technological University has designed this professional master’s degree, where the professionals will be able to obtain the necessary actualization from the hand of a specialized teaching team with extensive experience in this area. Thus, through a theoretical and practical approach, students will delve into the microbiome and metagenomics, advances in the clinical application of probiotics and prebiotics in urology, gynecology and immunology.
