Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The human microbiome is a complex ecosystem of microorganisms that inhabit our bodies. Studies in the field of metabolomics have provided new insights into the interactions between the microbiome and its host, highlighting the role these microorganisms play in human health and disease. Research on the microbiome is ongoing and encompasses a wide range of topics, including potential connections between the microbiome and the development of chronic diseases as well as the ways in which the microbiome may influence normal metabolic processes. The microbiome represents a rapidly developing field of study with potential implications for medicine.
This Special Issue is dedicated to exploring the frontiers of microbiome–metabolome interactions and their impact on human health. We welcome submissions that delve into the mechanisms of metabolic dysregulation associated with alterations in the microbiome community and investigate the challenges of integrating clinical microbiome and metabolomic data.
Through this Special Issue, we aim to present current research on the human microbiome and its impact on human health in addition to introducing new computational methods that may aid in our understanding of the microbiome. This is an opportunity to contribute new discoveries, methods, and insights related to the field of the microbiome, metabolomics, and its potential effects on human health.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Metabolites is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
