ヒトメタゲノム：Nature最近の9論文

この一年にnature誌上に報告されたヒトメタゲノムに関する9レポート。メタゲノムは過去10年の生物学では最も重要な学問的収穫だと小生は考えるものである。面白くてしょうがないぞ。natureも頑張っているな。

Human Microbiota

The human body is colonized by a vast number of microbes, collectively referred to as the human microbiota. The link between these microbes and our health is the focus of a growing number of research initiatives, and new insights are emerging rapidly, some of which we are proud to present in this special collection.
