CasualBiome
Solution for Causal Relationships in the Microbiome
True understanding of biology goes beyond associations to uncover causal relationships driving biological processes. CausalBiome provides deep insights into how microbiomes in both humans and animals impact health, revealing crucial cause-and-effect dynamics. This platform helps identify how microbial communities influence biological functions, leading to more targeted interventions and therapies.
Challenges with Conventional Approaches
Traditional methods in microbiome research often fall short. Univariate approaches, commonly used in cohort studies, try to manage confounding factors by balancing distributions like gender or age. However, this approach overlooks the complex, interdependent relationships between these factors, which can lead to inaccuracies and incomplete conclusions. Understanding, analysing and interpreting microbiome data poses a unique challenge due to its double high-dimensional nature:
- Microbial Diversity: A vast array of microbial species interact in complex ways.
- Confounding Factors: Numerous physiological, genetic, and environmental variables can influence the microbiome.
