Bacterial colonization of the infant intestinal tract and other barrier organs begins during the process of birth\, and microbes and microbial me tabolites interact with humans during fetal life. Humans have evolved over millennia to require interaction with microbes for competent immune devel opment and metabolism\, and novel functions are now being uncovered. Moreo ver\, the establishment of the microbiome in the critical neonatal period is foundational for lifelong health and disease susceptibility.\n\nDr. Jul iette Madan\, pediatrician\, neonatologist\, physician-scientist and Clini cal Director of the Children’s Environmental Health and Disease Prevention Research Center at Dartmouth directs large-scale molecular epidemiology c ohort investigations of human microbiome studies beginning in fetal life\, in high risk populations (e.g. prematurity and cystic fibrosis) and in he alth. Her research program aims to rigorously test associations between mi crobiome and metabolome development and human health\, and to apply this k nowledge to the discovery of strategies for optimal health promotion in hi gh risk populations.\n DTSTART:20191011T150000Z DTEND:20191011T160000Z LOCATION:Room 1034\, McIntyre Medical Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3G 1 Y6\, 3655 promenade Sir William Osler SUMMARY:Seminar: A second life: microbe–human interactions beginning in inf ancy URL:/physiology/channels/event/seminar-second-life-mic robe-human-interactions-beginning-infancy-300030 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
