THE MICROBIOME
THROUGHOUT LIFE
THROUGHOUT LIFE
BUCHAREST · 11-13 NOV 2027
Explore the key themes, formats, and scientific sessions that make up MBTL 2027.
From breakthrough technologies and the earliest stages of life to healthy aging, the gut-brain axis, nutrition, clinical translation and next-generation therapies, Microbiome Throughout Life (MBTL) 2027 will explore the discoveries and innovations shaping the future of microbiome science and patient care.
From data to discovery -AI, computational biology, multi-omics, bioinformatics and innovative technologies transforming how we understand complex microbial ecosystems.
Building the foundations of lifelong health - maternal microbiome, pregnancy, birth, the first 1,000 days, infant microbiome development and the impact of early microbial exposures on lifelong health and disease.
The Microbiome in Aging, Longevity & Disease - the evolving microbiome across the lifespan, its role in healthy aging and longevity, and its links to cancer, metabolic and liver diseases, inflammatory and other chronic conditions.
Connecting microbiome, lifestyle and whole-body health - the gut-brain connection, diet and nutrition, food-microbiome interactions and their influence on neurological, psychological, metabolic and systemic health, alongside emerging insights into the interconnected microbial ecosystems of the human body.
Translating discovery into patient care - microbiome testing, biomarkers, diagnostics, clinical evidence and the opportunities and challenges of bringing microbiome science into everyday clinical practice, including the role of non-gut microbiomes such as oral, vaginal and skin microbiomes.
From FMT to next-generation therapies - current and emerging microbiome-based interventions, precision medicine and therapeutic innovation, from FMT and dietary approaches to next-generation therapies and the expanding roles of viruses, fungi, archaea and other microbial communities.
Single-track lectures that set the scientific agenda for the day, with dedicated time for discussion and questions.
Interactive workshops offering practical skills, new approaches, and hands-on learning you can apply to your work.
Real cases presented by the clinicians who managed them, discussed with an expert panel and the room.
Dedicated time for poster presenters to showcase their research, exchange ideas, and discuss their work with conference participants.
