A novel review, led by Dr. Andrés Moya from the University of Valencia (Spain) and Dr. Manuel Ferrer from the Institute of Catalysis at Spanish National Research Council in Madrid (Spain), argues that a network-biology approach can help us understand how our gut microbiota is continuously changing in the gut environment. The ecosystem of bacteria in the human gut operates…
