DESCRIPTION:Thomas Clavel\, Research Group Intestinal Microbiome\, ZIEL In
 stitute for Food and Health\, TU München\, Germany\nHuman body microbiome
 s have major impact on health. Research in microbial ecology and microbe-h
 ost interactions has been blooming over the last decade\, and we are now e
 ntering a new era with novel challenges. A pan-view of microbiomes is need
 ed based on the analysis of large and well-phenotyped and -genotyped study
  populations\, and molecular approaches must become integrative and not re
 stricted to in-house generated datasets. Most of all\, there is urgent nee
 d to go back to classical bacteriological techniques to bring light on nov
 el diversity and to study molecular mechanisms and the functional relevanc
 e of specific microbes. In my talk\, I will address these issues by presen
 ting novel resources for the study of bacterial diversity and giving examp
 les of the use of complex communities and single bacteria for functional s
 tudy of microbe-host interactions in inflammatory and metabolic diseases.
