Lifelines

A new @LifelinesNL study of 700+ mother-infant pairs maps dynamics and establishment of the gut virome. Key finding: maternal sharing & early viral diversity are linked to infant immune health and food allergies. Reactomics can now help us unlock how the host response in health and disease. doi.org/10.64898/2026.…
