In a pioneering study shedding light on the hidden world of corals, researchers have taken a closer look at how coral microbiomes adapt when faced with a critical challenge: hypoxia, or dangerously low oxygen levels in the surrounding water.

The gut microbiome – the community of bacteria and other helpful organisms in your gut – can affect “every aspect of your health”

Ljubljana – A group of Slovenian researchers has created software that helps scientists analyse the content of microbiomes, the communities of microorganisms living in the human gut, in order to detect specific pathways that may indicate the presence of a disease. The discovery creates opportunities for the development of new personalised-medicine therapies.
