Microbiome-Net

Microbiome-Net is a UK-led Microbiome One Health Innovation Network bringing together researchers, industry, regulators, policymakers and investors to unlock the full potential of microbiome science. By connecting expertise across human, animal, plant and environmental health, the network aims to accelerate innovation, translation and real-world impact.

Microbiomes — the communities of microorganisms that live in and around us — play a critical role in health, food systems and the environment. Advances in microbiome science offer powerful opportunities to address major global challenges, including chronic and infectious disease, antimicrobial resistance, food security, agricultural sustainability and climate change. However, progress has often been slowed by fragmented research, siloed sectors and gaps between academia and industry. Microbiome-Net is designed to change that.
