What Is the Microbiome and How Do We Study It?
Rosie Young, a doctoral candidate from the Quadram Institute Biosciences, talks about the microbiome and how cutting-edge research explores its secrets in just 10 minutes. Young is currently working on a project centred around the effect of stressors on human performance (cognitive and physical), as mediated by changes in the gut microbiome. Learn about the diverse communities of microorganisms that inhabit our bodies and the innovative methods scientists are using to study this intricate ecosystem.
MAXimize Your Understanding of the Human Microbiome
The human microbiome is the combined genetic material of the microorganisms present in the human body and is thought to make up 1-3% of our body mass. Analyzing the human -microbiome is a complex task, which is why Applied Biosystems™ developed the MagMAX™ Microbiome Ultra Nucleic Acid Isolation Kit, to help MAXimize our understanding.
