This study examines how fetal activity patterns in utero relate to postnatal infant sleep behavior, finding that fetal circadian entrainment predicts infant sleep preferences.

This study examines links between gut microbiota diversity and sleep rhythmicity in infants, finding that higher alpha diversity correlates with more robust sleep rhythms.

This study shows that storing stool samples in domestic freezers for up to six months preserves microbial composition and metagenomic data integrity, making it a viable alternative to -80°C storage for at-home collection.
