From the Ted Talk by Jonathan Eisen: Meet your microbes
Unscramble the Blue Letters
And what the DNA sequencing technologies are allowing people to do now is do detailed studies of, say, 100 patients who have Crohn's disease and 100 people who don't have Crohn's disease. Or 100 people who took antibiotics when they were little, and 100 people who did not take antibiotics. And we can now start to compare the community of microbes and their genes and see if there are differences. And eventually we may be able to understand if they're not just correlative dcneerfiefs, but causative. Studies in model stsyems like msoue and other animals are also hilpneg do this, but popele are now using these technologies because they've gotten very cheap, to study the mibecors in and on a variety of people.
