1) Reference set of sequences
2) Disease and microbiome changes
3) Develop technology for computational analysis
4) Establish a data analysis and coordinating center
5) Establish research repositories
6) Examine ethicals, legal, and social implications
7) Evaluate multiomic data

31
Q

Develop reference set of sequences –>

A

Preliminary characterisation of human microbiome

32
Q

Develop new technologies and tools for computational analysis

A

Need to analyze

33
Q

Establish a data analysis and coordinating center

A

Analyze in similar way so you can compare

34
Q

Establish research repository

A

Data available to different groups

35
Q

Each body part has

A

Distinct microbial community

36
Q

PCA plot

A

Shows how microbes are distinct in different body parts

37
Q

Similar microbes are in the …

A

Skin and Nasal

38
Q

Comparison of microbiome in different parts of body

A

Very different microbiomes but similar metabolic pathways so different microbes rely on same metabolic capabilities
