hypothesise that individual differences in the complex interaction of the host genome and …

The human microbiota is a diverse microbial ecosystem associated with many beneficial
physiological functions as well as numerous disease etiologies. Dominated by bacteria, the …

The understanding of the intestinal inflammation occurring in the inflammatory bowel
diseases (IBD) has been immeasurably advanced by the development of the now numerous …
