A very short post to plug... well, to plug me really, and my very, very small contribution to an article featuring in the Pharmaceutical Journal titled: Microbiomics: its growing significance in the world of medicines testing. The article is only open-access for a short period of time, so if you happen to have stumbled across this post years and years into the future (today is Tuesday 26th February 2013 according to my flux-capacitated DeLorean) sorry.
But just so you don't feel to left out, a few article highlights: yoghurt and C.diff infection, the human microbiome project (HMP), gut bacteria and immune function, dysbiosis, the microbiota-gut-brain axis, fecal transplants (yuck factor 10) and pharmacometabonomics.
Thanks a lot. All fascinating studies.
