Did you know that you and in fact all living organisms collaborate with millions of tiny microbes every day? And that these microbes are essential for all living beings? Microbes such as bacteria, viruses and fungi are everywhere. In your gut, on your skin, in your sourdough, on your kitchen table and all your surroundings. These microbes influence your daily life and health in ways that researchers are only just starting to realise and investigate. In this podcast series Professor Tom Gilbert and editor and PhD Christina Noer talk with experts to explore these remarkable relations.
