  "textContent": "A new study demonstrates that computer models of gut metabolism can predict which probiotics will successfully establish themselves in a person's gut and how different prebiotics affect production of health-promoting short-chain fatty acids. The findings are published in PLOS Biology by Sean Gibbons of the Institute for Systems Biology, US, and colleagues.",
