Characterizing the microbiome of neonates and infants to explore associations with health and disease

This webinar will focus on the acquisition and development of the preterm gut microbiome from birth and following discharge from intensive care. Specifically, we will discuss the association of the gut microbiome with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and late onset sepsis (LOS), as well as the impact of birth mode. We will also discuss analysis of multi-omic datasets, including the analysis of the airway microbiome and metabolome in infants hospitalized with bronchiolitis.
