The Amsterdam Microbiome Initiative studies microbial consortia in biotechnological, biomedical and environmental settings. Currently more than ten research groups participate in the Amsterdam-wide initiative that started this year. MiCRop will exchange exchange ideas and experiences via this platform to further elucidate the interactions between host and microbiome, and fundamental mechanisms.
