Abstract

The immune system has a vital, albeit complex, relationship with the microbes residing within us, one that we are only beginning to understand. We asked investigators what they felt were the fundamental challenges we currently face in unraveling the impacts of microbes and their metabolites on host immunity and to discuss key opportunities toward achieving future insights and innovation.
