Recent advances that allow us to collect more data on DNA sequences and metabolites
have increased our understanding of connections between the intestinal microbiota and …

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including Crohn's disease (CD), are genetically linked
to host pathways that implicate an underlying role for aberrant immune responses to …

Molecular characterization of cell types using single-cell transcriptome sequencing is
revolutionizing cell biology and enabling new insights into the physiology of human organs. We …

Background Understanding the factors regulating our microbiota is important but requires
appropriate statistical methodology. When comparing two or more populations most existing …

The bacteria that colonize humans and our built environments have the potential to influence
our health. Microbial communities associated with seven families and their homes over 6 …

Gut microorganisms modulate host phenotypes and are associated with numerous health
effects in humans, ranging from host responses to cancer immunotherapy to metabolic …

Recent studies suggest that gut microbiomes of urban-industrialized societies are different
from those of traditional peoples. Here we examine the relationship between lifeways and gut …

The gut microbiome has been implicated in multiple human chronic gastrointestinal (GI)
disorders. Determining its mechanistic role in disease has been difficult due to apparent …

Vertebrate corpse decomposition provides an important stage in nutrient cycling in most
terrestrial habitats, yet microbially mediated processes are poorly understood. Here we combine …
