Microbiome Centers – Input Wanted

Compiling a list of Microbiome Centers from the US and elsewhere. I had previously done this and have no made a new effort in part in association with a meeting of Microbiome Centers organized by Jen Hughes Martiny and others of the UC Irvine Microbiome Initiative. I would love suggestions for other centers to add to this list and any edits or corrections to this list.

I will update this list as comments come in but for the latest list see this Google Sheet.

    1. thanks for the suggestion – this does not seem to be focused on microbiomes or related topics (it seems much bigger) so I am not going to include it unless you can point me to other information

  1. University of Vienna, Austria, Centre for Microbiology and Environmental Systems Science
    cmess.csb.univie.ac.a

  2. Please notify me of updates/additions to your list. I think it would be a helpful step to identify those “centers” actually funded by NIH for microbiome research. Is there an organized network of same?

    This is great work. Thanks.

  3. We are launching a new Program for Innovative Microbiome and Translational Reseach (PRIME TR) at MD Anderson Cancer Center and we are excited to be a part of this effort and to collaborate and harmonize microbiome efforts with others worldwide! Thank you for organizing this.
