The Human Microbiome in Early Life: Implications to Health and Disease presents recent research advances that have highlighted the significance of early life, possibly beginning before birth, in the establishment of both the microbiome and its role in health and disease. The book reviews current knowledge on the origins of the human microbiota in early life, presents exposures which may disturb normal microbial colonization, and covers their implications to the risk of disease. Finally, emerging means to modify the early human microbiome to improve health are discussed.

Professor Koren received his PhD from Tel Aviv University and moved on to a postdoc at Cornell University where he was part of the NIH Human Microbiome Project. The Koren lab's research focuses on the microbiome, studying the roles of the trillions of bacteria that reside within each individual. They have a wide variety of research interests including interactions between microbiota and the host in health and in disease states in general and specific interest in the microbiome of pregnancy and infancy.
