Course Description
We live in constant contract with the microbial world. In fact, human-associated microbes outnumber our own cells by at least 10-fold and these interactions are most often beneficial to our normal health. This course draws upon the recent literature describing the role of the human microbiota from the perspectives of microbial evolution, ecology, and host physiology.
