Did you know that you and in fact all living organisms collaborate with millions of tiny microbes every day? And that these microbes are essential for all living beings?
”Microbial Connections” explores the exciting new research field holobiont biology – where host organisms and their associated microbes are viewed as one intertwined system. The expert guests explore how viewing life in this new way stands to transform everything from food production to medical science. Learn how important early life is for shaping your microbiome, why fermented food is so popular, how food production can become more sustainable thanks to microbes, and much more.

How growing miniature stomachs can help uncover our evolutionary history with microbes
How can a microbe responsible for ulcers be either beneficial or harmful to you depending on your genetic background and at what time in life you are infected? And why are fewer Danish children today infected and what does that mean for the future of our health? Associate Professor Sandra Breum Andersen will answer all of these fascinating questions in this episode of Microbial Connections on her field Evolutionary Medicine.
