Since algae already capture 50% of all biological carbon capture, can this be turned into a climate mitigation technology?

Microbiologists should make sure that the scientific innovations are applied in the real world and are not just left on a shelf.

Microbiome manipulation in agriculture could reduce chemical inputs, but unintended consequences (e.g. shifts in microbial diversity or function) are poorly understood.

How do we responsibly scale up microbiome-based technologies in agriculture?

# data[].attributes.body
Scientists are working on how gut microbes are effecting individuals life. We should be deeply focusing on other microbes on our different body parts effecting the balance of gut microbes and disease situation.

The gut microbiome has a lot of proteins that are still considered as hypothetical protein. We could use the tool Alhpa fold to understand the structure and functions of hypothetical proteins in the gut microbiome which could help in understanding disease progrssion.

How does housing, healthcare access, migrant status, gender, working conditions (e.g. sex work, precarious employment) affect AMR/disease outcomes? And how in turn is unequal distribution of these factors driven by power relations between different socially constructed groups - patriarchy, racial capitalism, (settler) colonialism.
