The human microbiome plays a crucial role in health and disease, which has captured the attention and fascination of many scientists, clinicians, and the interested public. Research on the topic has grown exponentially, but curiously less attention was paid early on to the potential influence of the microbiome in respiratory diseases. This has changed dramatically and rapidly in recent years. We now have a solid foundation of knowledge coupled with a continually growing number of studies, which together are elucidating the impact and processes by which microbiota can shape a variety of respiratory diseases and their clinical outcomes.
