Lemur study from Anne Yoder’s lab in DMC highlights role of diet in shaping gut microbiome

A study of the bacteria in the guts of three lemur species offers new insights into the role of diet in shaping these microbial ecosystems — and how these microbes may relate to primate health.  First-author Erin McKenney was a graduate of Duke’s NSF-funded IBIEM training program.  Read more about this study here.
