Micromanagement in the gut : microenvironmental factors govern colon mucosal biofilm structure and functionality [PDF]
The human gut microbiome provides us with functional features that we did not have to evolve ourselves and can be viewed as a structured microbial community that operates like a microbial organ within the human host.
