Researchers at University of Galway have created the world's largest collection of digital microbes
nearly a quarter million computer models
to help revolutionize our understanding of the human microbiome and its impact on health.
The world's largest digital collection of microbes, known as the Microbiome Insights Library (MIL), has been launched to revolutionize health research. This extensive database, developed by Microbiome Insights Inc., contains over 100,000 microbial samples from various environments including human, animal, soil, and water sources. The library aims to provide researchers with a comprehensive resource to study microbial diversity, understand microbial interactions, and develop new treatments for diseases linked to microbial imbalances. By offering detailed insights into microbial ecosystems, MIL supports advancements in personalized medicine, agriculture, environmental science, and more, potentially leading to breakthroughs in how we approach health and disease prevention.
