Microbiome Research survey of Canada

MicrobiomeSupport is an EU-funded, international effort to coordinate microbiome research efforts and will impact standards, policies, funding and future international cooperation.

The first step (WP1) is to map the state of play in the field of microbiome-related research, throughout the food systems and beyond.
