The human body is an ecosystem. Trillions of microbes call us home. They form the human microbiome, which performs critical functions that preserve our health including modulating our immune system and providing colonization resistance against infectious pathogens. Alterations of the human microbiome are increasingly recognized as a key factor in development of immune and infectious diseases. We rationally design medicines based on consortia of human commensal bacteria to treat disease, using insights from microbial ecology, mucosal immunology, and human interventional studies. Our platform enables identification of defined bacterial consortia with drug-like properties and their manufacture to GMP standards.
