The predictive power of the microbiome exceeds that of genome-wide association studies in the discrimination of complex human disease

2020-01-02

Abstract excerpt

Over the past decade, studies of the human genome and microbiome have deepened our understanding of the connections between human genes, environments, microbes, and disease. For example, the sheer number of indicators of the microbiome and human genetic common variants associated with disease has been immense, but clinical utility has been elusive. Here, we compared the predictive capabilities of the human microbi...
