Population dynamics of the human gut microbiome: change is the only constant

Characterization of the temporal dynamics of the human gut microbiome is crucial for understanding its role in modulating host health. Two recent studies explored the genetic diversity of gut microbes and unraveled extensive longitudinal dynamics within the host that is driven by natural selection.
