Peter J. Turnbaugh, Vanessa K. Ridaura, Jeremiah J. Faith, Federico E. Rey, Rob Knight, Jeffrey I. Gordon- General Medicine
A translational medicine pipeline is described where human gut microbial communities and diets are re-created in gnotobiotic mice and the impact on microbe and host is defined using metagenomics.
