Introducing Noisy Guts
Noisy Guts is an Australian gut health company on a mission to improve your gut health.
Noisy Guts is led by an experienced, dedicated and passionate team - Dr Josephine Muir, Dr Mary Webberley and our medical advisor Nobel Laureate Professor Barry Marshall.
Our ‘north star’ is a non-invasive and accurate diagnostic test for one of the world’s most common gut disorders - Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Our initial approach involved the analysis of bowel sounds. However, we are now focussed on developing a diagnostic tool based on digital markers. It’s a cheaper and more accurate solution.
Here’s how we help you…

Professor Barry Marshall
Scientific Advisor
Barry with Prof Robin Warren showed that Helicobacter pylori is the main cause of stomach and duodenal ulcers. Their discovery, recognised by the Nobel Prize for Medicine or Physiology, led to more effective ulcer treatments and to uncovering the link between H. pylori and stomach cancer. He continues to undertake research. His strong industry connections have facilitated research translation. He invented and commercialised two gold standard diagnostic tests for H. pylori: the 14C Urea Breath Test (PYtest®), and the Rapid Urease Test (CLOtest®).
