BiomeGPT: A foundation model for the human gut microbiome

2026-01-05

Abstract excerpt

The human gut microbiome encodes rich information about host health, yet current analysis pipelines remain narrowly optimized for individual tasks. This limits our ability to gain a thorough view of how the microbiome impacts health and disease. Here we introduce BiomeGPT, a transformer-based foundation model pretrained on over 13,300 human gut metagenomes spanning 32 phenotypes—including healthy and 31 diverse di...
