Description

Military microbiome research is summed up in a 2025 meeting report by Melissa Kardish and co-authors. The report covers the eighth annual symposium of a defense consortium built to join microbiome work across the services. The meeting ran in Colorado Springs in late September 2024, with talks and posters.

Sessions fell under four themes: surveillance, health and performance, enabling tools, and remediation. Work spans gut health for troops, environmental sampling, and methods that labs can share. The consortium exists to cut duplicated effort and speed joint projects. Readers get a compact map of where defense microbiome science stands and which collaborations are forming next.
