Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Correlation of Microbiome to Disease via Relative Abundance Found in Microbiome Sequencing [Three years]
Relative abundance of bacterial classes within taxonomic phyla and, more broadly, within their domain will be analyzed by sequencing the gut microbiome. These data will then be categorized with bipolar disorder
