Human microbiota, the collection of microbes living in and on our body, have a significant impact on human health and well-being. They have been associated with numerous diseases, yet we have barely understood their role in the context of life-style and genetics. Various initiatives are underway around the world to survey the human microbiota at several body sites, characterize them, understand their interactions with the human hosts, elucidate their role in diseases, and design possible therapeutic or dietary interventions. Despite numerous activities in this expanding and diversifying field, a large international conference on this important topic is currently lacking in Europe. This event will provide plentiful opportunities for European researchers to learn about and to connect to important developments in this field.
