Welcome to the Amsterdam Microbiome Space

posted on: 08.06.2026

This is an initiative led by mostly academic junior scientists working on microbiome research in the area of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Let's get the conversation started!

Whether you are a researcher yourself, a soon-to-be one, a science freak or just interested in microbiome science (probably because you’ve heard that your digestive problems may have something to do with the microbiome); we are here to share with you exciting science that is being done in Amsterdam and surroundings, as well as discussing assumptions and misconceptions. But before we get into any details on what the microbiome is, why it is important… we have a little quiz for you!
