Industrialization drives convergent microbial and physiological shifts in the human metaorganism

Mathilde Poyet, Malte Christoph Rühlemann, Ana Paula Schaan, Yue Ma, Lucas Moitinho‐Silva, Eike Matthias Wacker, Hannah Jebens, Lucas Patel, Le Thanh Tu Nguyen, Alexis Zimmer, Damian Rafal Plichta, Daniel McDonald, Christine R. Stevens, Adwoa Agyei Nkansah, Mary Afihene, , Mathieu Groussin

The paper investigates how industrialization affects microbial and physiological traits in the human gut across diverse populations, finding homogenized microbiomes, reduced diversity, and impaired disease prediction accuracy in less industrialized groups.
