 *[http://commonfund.nih.gov/hmp/ Human Microbiome Project] &mdash; aims to characterize the microbial communities found at several different sites on the human body, including nasal passages, oral cavities, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and urogenital tract, and to analyze the role of these microbes in human health and disease.
 **[[wikipedia:Human Microbiome Project]] (HMP) &mdash; launched in 2007 as an international collaboration with the aim of collecting and collating genomic information from many diverse human microbiomes (Peterson, 2009). ("the largest international life-science project of all time." --Davies, 2009)

 ;prebiotics : oligosaccharides or complex saccharides that stimulate the growth or activity of the beneﬁcial commensal bacteria that already are present in the host.
 ;microbial guilds : groups of microbial species sharing a common ecological niche. On this view, different combinations of species could fulfil the same functional roles in different hosts (Tschop et al., 2009).
