Anthropologists
are studying the ancient and modern human microbiome and the role it plays in
human health and disease. By applying genomic and proteomic sequencing
technologies to ancient human microbiomes, such as coprolites and dental
calculus, as well as to contemporary microbiomes in traditional and
industrialized societies, Researchers are advancing the understanding of the
evolutionary history of our microbial self and its impact on human health
today.
