Summary
Plants, animals and their microbial partners form complex ecosystems affecting human health and farming. New spatial-omics techniques—combining high-res sequencing—promise to reveal who’s doing what at the microscopic level. A symposium will unite experts to compare methods, spark collaborations and chart a roadmap to precision health, sustainable agriculture and food security.
