Bioinformatics for the human microbiome project [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology, 2012
Microbes inhabit virtually all sites of the human body, yet we know very little about the role they play in our health. In recent years, there has been increasing interest in studying human-associated microbial communities, particularly since microbial ...

The Human Microbiome Project: A Community Resource for the Healthy Human Microbiome [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2012
The Human Microbiome Project (HMP) [1],[2] is a concept that was long in the making. After the Human Genome Project, interest grew in sequencing the “other genome" of microbes carried in and on the human body [3],[4]. Microbial ecologists, realizing that

Structure, function and diversity of the healthy human microbiome [PDF]

Nature, 2012
Studies of the human microbiome have revealed that even healthy individuals differ remarkably in the microbes that occupy habitats such as the gut, skin and vagina. Much of this diversity remains unexplained, although diet, environment, host genetics and

The NIH Human Microbiome Project [PDF]

Genome Research, 2009
The Human Microbiome Project (HMP), funded as an initiative of the NIH Roadmap for Biomedical Research (http://nihroadmap.nih.gov), is a multi-component community resource. The goals of the HMP are: (1) to take advantage of new, high-throughput technologies to characterize the human microbiome more fully by studying samples from multiple body sites ...

Implications of the Human Microbiome Project for Epidemiology [PDF]

American Journal of Epidemiology, 2013
The structure and function of microorganisms that live in and on us, the human microbiota, are a tremendous resource. Microbiota may help to explain individual variability in health outcomes and be a source of new biomarkers for environmental exposures and of novel prognostic and diagnostic indicators.

The Human Microbiome Project: lessons from human genomics [PDF]

Trends in Microbiology, 2012
The Human Microbiome Project (HMP) is following in the footsteps of the Human Genome Project (HGP), which will include exciting discoveries, but also potential disappointment and resentment over the lack of medical applications. There is a wiser path for the HMP.
