Social and environmental predictors of gut microbiome age in wild baboons Open
Mammalian gut microbiomes are highly dynamic communities that shape and are shaped by host aging, including age-related changes to host immunity, metabolism, and behavior. As such, gut microbial composition may provide valuable information…

Social and environmental predictors of gut microbiome age in wild baboons Open
Understanding why some individuals age faster than others is essential to evolutionary biology and geroscience, but measuring variation in biological age is difficult. One solution may lie in measuring gut microbiome composition because mi…

Twenty Important Research Questions in Microbial Exposure and Social Equity Open
Social and political policy, human activities, and environmental change affect the ways in which microbial communities assemble and interact with people. These factors determine how different social groups are exposed to beneficial and/or …

Synchrony and idiosyncrasy in the gut microbiome of wild baboons Open
Human gut microbial dynamics are highly individualized, making it challenging to link microbiota to health and to design universal microbiome therapies. This individuality is typically attributed to variation in host genetics, diets, envir…

Introducing the Microbes and Social Equity Working Group: Considering the Microbial Components of Social, Environmental, and Health Justice Open
Humans are inextricably linked to each other and our natural world, and microorganisms lie at the nexus of those interactions. Microorganisms form genetically flexible, taxonomically diverse, and biochemically rich communities, i.e., micro…

Gut microbiome heritability is nearly universal but environmentally contingent Open
Baboons inform on human gut microbiota Commensal bacteria are found throughout an organism, but it is not known whether associations between gut bacteria and their host are heritable. Grieneisen et al. examined changes in the microbiomes o…

A comparison of dominance rank metrics reveals multiple competitive landscapes in an animal society Open
Across group-living animals, linear dominance hierarchies lead to disparities in access to resources, health outcomes and reproductive performance. Studies of how dominance rank predicts these traits typically employ one of several dominan…

Primate microbiomes over time: Longitudinal answers to standing questions in microbiome research Open
To date, most insights into the processes shaping vertebrate gut microbiomes have emerged from studies with cross‐sectional designs. While this approach has been valuable, emerging time series analyses on vertebrate gut microbiomes show th…

Differential gene expression and the importance of regulatory ncRNAs in acidophilic microorganisms Open
Gene expression profiles provide insight into how microorganisms respond to changing environmental conditions. However, few studies have integrated expression profile analyses of both coding genes and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) to characteri…
