The paper introduces a nonparametric method to construct microbiome co-occurrence networks with confidence, improving network recovery by accounting for conditional associations and providing statistical inference.

This study constructs a syntenic pangenome of Gardnerella, revealing new plasmids, taxonomic boundaries, and species-level differences in metabolic and virulence traits.

SurvBal identifies microbiome taxon balances associated with survival outcomes using survival models and step-wise selection.
