Digestive tract diseases like IBS and Crohn’s disease plague 40% of Americans. This statistic is personal for Jordan Moore (PWS ’24) whose brother was diagnosed with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) while still in high school. The disease impacted his brother by delaying goals important to him like serving a mission or attending college. After joining the genetics, genomics, and biotechnology major at BYU, Moore realized that he could make a difference in his brother’s life. This motivation drives all of Moore’s research and aspirations.
