Microbiota Primer Topics

What is this 'human microbiota', anyway? 
How is it different from the 'human microbiome',
or the 'commensal flora'?


Where is the human microbiota found on the body?

What is the human microbiota made of?
Where does the human microbiota come from?

What does our microbiota do for us?  Or to us?

Why should we pay attention to the human microbiota?  Since it evolved with us and helps keep us healthy,
won't it just keep doing so?


Awesome whiteboard video from Youreka Science that covers a lot of these topics. (opens in a new window)
