Market Dynamics

Increasing Integration of machine learning and bioinformatics

Growing developments in computational technology, such as bioinformatics and machine learning, have made it easy to detect microbiome-specific diagnoses, resulting in accurate diagnoses for certain diseases. Computational tools are increasingly utilized in a large number of microbiome data for the identification of patterns and potential biomarkers associated with health conditions. Further rapid development of machine learning techniques has opened up the data-dense field of microbiome research for novel therapeutic, diagnostic, and prognostic applications targeting a wide range of disorders, which could substantially improve healthcare practices in the era of precision medicine.

Increasing adoption of multi-omics data for microbiome functional activities

Increasing adoption of multi-omics data for microbiome fictional activities with integrating the data from multi-omic approaches provides additional insight into microbiome functions. For instance, integrating metagenomics and metatranscriptomics provides a calculation of transcript/gene ratios, which is indicative of gene transcriptional activation or repression. Additionally,multi-omic studies of the microbiome can provide insight into the mechanisms underlying host-microbe interactions. As more omics layers are considered, increasingly sophisticated statistical methods are required to integrate them.
