Concluding remarks of the 4th World Congress on Targeting Microbiota

The 4th World Congress on Targeting Microbiota which was held at Pasteur Institute on October 17-19 was a huge success. More than 300 attendees participated during this 3-day congress. Academics and industrials from more than 37 countries gathered to discuss the recent scientific advances on microbiota and all related researches such as phage therapy, fecal microbiota transplantation, and also about microbiota analysis and the challenge of the interpretation of the data.
