During the 10th International Human Microbiome Consortium (IHMC) Congress 2024, held in Rome last June, Microbiomepost conducted an exclusive interview with Charlotte Neumann, researcher at Medical University of Graz, about the role of Archaea and obligate anaerobes in the development of the infant oral microbiome. “Previous publications have shown that Archaea occur mostly between year one or three, but we can show that it’s already early on life” says Neumann.
