Antibiotic-mediated perturbation of the gut microbiome is associated with numerous
infectious and autoimmune diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Yet, as the gut microbiome …

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a substantial threat to human health. The widespread
prevalence of AMR is, in part, due to the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance genes …

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are widespread among bacteria. However, not all ARGs
pose serious threats to public health, highlighting the importance of identifying those that are …

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have accelerated microbial threats to human health in
the last decade. Many genes can confer resistance, but evaluating the relative health risks of …

Pure bacterial cultures remain essential for detailed experimental and mechanistic studies in
microbiome research, and traditional methods to isolate individual bacteria from complex …

Infant microbiome assembly has been intensely studied in infants from industrialized
nations, but little is known about this process in nonindustrialized populations. We deeply …

The gut microbiome lies at the intersection between the environment and the host, with the
ability to modify host responses to disease-relevant exposures and stimuli. This is evident in …

The perinatal period represents a critical window for cognitive and immune system
development, promoted by maternal and infant gut microbiomes and their metabolites. Here …

Characterizing complex microbial communities with single-cell resolution has been a long-
standing goal of microbiology. We present Microbe-seq, a high-throughput method that …

The importance of sampling from globally representative populations has been well
established in human genomics. In human microbiome research, however, we lack a full …
