Summary

The investigators hypothesize that disruptions to the microbiome of shift-workers represent a hitherto unexamined factor contributing to disease risk. The investigators will therefore define time-of-day dependent fluctuations of the microbiome in night shift workers and matched daytime workers deeply phenotyped for behavioral, clinical, and metabolomic outputs using integrated remote sensing.
