Very interesting and thorough review from @uchicagosurgery on how the #Microbiome impacts #ColorectalCancer recurrence after surgery.
IMHO this is a must-read for anyone who cares for CRC patients.
In the future, will we be successfully targeted and manipulating the microbiome for the prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer?
