0:00Alrighty, ladies and gentlemen, Dr.
0:02Tim Spector is back in the house.
0:05For those who missed our previous episode, Tim is a professor of genetic epidemiology at King's College London.
0:11He is the co-founder of Zoe, and he is one of the scientists most responsible for bringing microbiome science into the mainstream health conversation.
0:21In this episode, he returns to talk about a landmark paper recently published in the Journal of Nature that introduces what may be the most comprehensive microbiome ranking system developed today.
