Nice summary of the microbiome

Dr. Jim Sones, who has just retired as Chief of the Division of Digestive Diseases at University of Mississippi Medical Center recently joined our efforts at halfhuman.org!  He will be speaking at Jackson Prep's recently formed Biomedical Club this week and was nice enough to send me the following link to a New York Times article which, while a few years old, serves as a very nice introduction to the human microbiome.  Enjoy!

I remember this article from a few years back and am glad to revisit it. Nice summary in an approachable fashion. Dances around the difficulty we all have in not making sweeping clinical conclusions...we know we really shouldn’t...but it’s just too darn fascinating and exciting not to think of the implications.
Nice work, Jimmy. Would love to have you come visit us if your college search brings you out west. Will email you.

Thanks Armin! This was my very first trip to California, and my next will be when I work in the Knight Lab this summer!
