Grant Description

This funding opportunity announcement is intended to encourage research aimed at investigating how environmental exposures impact the composition and/or function of the microbiome. Applicants may propose to use wild-type or humanized gnotobiotic model organisms or existing human cohorts to investigate how exposure to environmental chemicals affects the microbiome in both the short and the long term. Early life exposures are of particular interest, as these occur during the initial colonization of the microbiota and may permanently affect its potential.
