International effort to study role of body microbes in human health and disease
23 October 2008
Scientists from around the globe, meeting last week in Heidelberg, Germany, formed the International Human Microbiome Consortium (IHMC), which will co-ordinate research to characterize the relationship of the human microbiome in the maintenance of health and in disease.
The human microbiome is the collective genomes of all microorganisms living in or on the human body. These microorganisms are suspected of having a role in a wide range of human diseases such as diabetes, asthma, obesity and digestive disorders.
The IHMC will generate a shared data resource from international projects that will be made freely available to the global scientific community. Research organizations from all nations supporting similar research efforts are invited to become participants

Everyone who is six months or older can benefit from the protection of a flu shot. In general, anyone who wants to reduce their chances of getting the flu can get vaccinated
