Secrets of the Microbiome / Who is the landlord and who is the tenant?

In recent years, the microbiome has become a common term in scientific publications and public space. Advertising, along with the healthy lifestyle trends, has ensured that we attribute almost magical properties to the mysterious microbiome. But what do we really know about it? And more importantly, what remains unknown? We’ll learn the basics about the current state of knowledge concerning the importance of the microbiome for the functioning of a healthy human body, and how it is likely to contribute to the development of certain diseases. We'll also learn to recognize the myths, fake news, and simplistic marketing campaigns that have used the term microbiome to make a hefty profit.
