Lecture introduction

iMAPS International Science Program aims to answer the "6W" questions of the microbiome in single-cell multiomics through the innovative scientific idea of metabolic function targeted single-cell multiomics in a "exhaustible" way - "who", "what", "what", "what", "whether" and "whether" in single-cell accuracy and "exhaustible". iMAPS International Science Plan will cooperate to build large-scale, high-throughput, intelligent, and network-based microbiome detection scientific facilities, carry out the entire microecosystem-wide, single-cell accuracy, exhaustive microbiome "metabolic physical examination" and "in-sifting and then raising" of in-situ metabolic functions, and jointly promote the International Human/Earth Microbiome Program and other projects to enter a new stage of "real-cell metabolism monitoring and in-situ functional bacterial excavation".
