What you will study

This course was the first of its kind to offer a specialism in microbiome in health and disease. Conceived by the Centre for Host-Microbiome Interactions, it blends expertise in microbiology, bioinformatics and systems biology with a focus on translation in clinical, agricultural and environmental challenges. It’s designed to develop your knowledge of the microbial communities that reside within or upon us and how they impact our health and disease processes.
