Infant Gut Microbiome Acquisition: Off to a Healthy Start
This meeting is held by our Young CAS Fellow Veronika K. Pettersen (UiT).
For invited participants only.
The meeting will examine computational approaches to longitudinal human microbiome studies in connection to the Young CAS Fellow project of Veronika K. Pettersen.
AIMS: the meeting will seed potential research proposals and publications (a microbiome study protocol, a review).
Tuesday
