The Human Microbiome Project: Getting to the Guts of the Matter in Cancer Epidemiology [PDF]
Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, 2008 With the completion of the Human Genome Project, we have a new array of tools to carry out genetic epidemiologic studies. Thanks to the Human Microbiome Project ([1][1]), launched recently by the NIH Roadmap for Medical Research, we will be in a position to expand our understanding of the ...

The Human Microbiome Project: Beginning and Future Status
Annals of Clinical Microbiology, 2013 In 1884 Robert Koch and Friedrich Loeffler published Koch’s Postulates defining our historical understanding of the relationship between an organism and infection: one organism: one disease. In the last decade with research on the microbial community living on and in humans, a new concept of microbial diseases has emerged; that is, alterations of the ...

Microbiology Insights, 2014 The influence of environmental chemicals including arsenic, a type 1 carcinogen, on the composition and function of the human-associated microbiota is of significance in human health and disease. We have developed a suite of bioinformatics and visual analytics methods to evaluate the availability (presence or absence) and abundance of functional ...

Metagenomics for Bacteriology [PDF]
, 2015 The study of bacteria, or bacteriology, has gone through transformative waves since its inception in the 1600s. It all started by the visualization of bacteria using light microscopy by Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, when he first described “animalcules ...

Promises and Prospects of Microbiome Studies [PDF]
, 2015 Since Anthony van Leeuwenhoek, first microscopic observations of the unseen microbiota and the more recent realization that little of the microbes in the biosphere are known, humans have developed a deep curiosity to fully understand the inner workings ...

Chemical Impacts of the Microbiome Across Scales Reveal Novel Conjugated Bile Acids [PDF]
, 2019 A mosaic of cross-phyla chemical interactions occurs between all metazoans and their microbiomes. In humans, the gut harbors the heaviest microbial load, but many organs, particularly those with a mucosal surface, associate with highly adapted and ...
