A framework for human microbiome research. [PDF]
A variety of microbial communities and their genes (the microbiome) exist throughout the human body, with fundamental roles in human health and disease. The National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded Human Microbiome Project Consortium has established a ...

The Human Microbiome Project: An Opportunity to Engage Undergraduates in Research
AbstractThe Human Microbiome Project (HMP) aims to characterize the diversity of microbial species found at several different sites on the human body. The HMP has sequenced hundreds of microbial reference genomes from multiple body sites and provides a wealth of primary genomic sequence data for analysis.

From metagenomics to the metagenome: Conceptual change and the rhetoric of translational genomic research [PDF]
As the international genomic research community moves from the tool-making efforts of the Human Genome Project into biomedical applications of those tools, new metaphors are being suggested as useful to understanding how our genes work – and for ...

Preservation Methods Differ in Fecal Microbiome Stability, Affecting Suitability for Field Studies. [PDF]
Immediate freezing at -20°C or below has been considered the gold standard for microbiome preservation, yet this approach is not feasible for many field studies, ranging from anthropology to wildlife conservation.

Methodology and ontology in microbiome research [PDF]
Research on the human microbiome has gen- erated a staggering amount of sequence data, revealing variation in microbial diversity at the community, species (or phylotype), and genomic levels. In order to make this complexity more manageable and easier to

Expanding the drug discovery space with predicted metabolite–target interactions
Using computational approaches, Nuzzo et al. identify 983 potential metabolite–human target interactions from the Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) cohort dataset of the Human Microbiome Project 2 (HMP2) and public databases.

The Human Microbiome and Recurrent Abdominal Pain in Children [PDF]
This project explores the nature of the human intestinal microbiome in healthy children and children with recurrent abdominal pain. The overall goal is to obtain a robust knowledge base of the intestinal microbiome in children without evidence of pain or

Metagenomic study of the human skin microbiome associated with acne [PDF]
The human microbiota contributes to our normal postnatal development and plays a significant role in defining our physiology. To understand the role of microbiota in human health and disease, we study the skin microbiome in pilosebaceous units (hair ...
