This project studies the gut microbiota of wild house mice to understand its natural variation and impact on fitness traits. It combines field studies with controlled lab experiments to explore the relationship between microbiota composition and host health.
The mammalian gut teems with a particularly dense and diverse microbial community, the composition of which varies widely among hosts.
A large body of laboratory work suggests these communities provide important functions for the host – including nutrition, pathogen protection and immune development – but we know very little about what shapes the mammalian gut microbiota, and how it affects the host, in natural populations.
A major barrier to progress is a lack of powerful investigative tools fo…
