Abstract
Alterations of the microbiome are associated with colorectal cancer. Research suggests that microbiome data could improve colorectal cancer screening. Analysis of the microbiome directly from existing screening methods offers the opportunity to rapidly translate this research into practice, with the potential to develop a multifactorial colorectal cancer screening tool.
