On June 11 and June 12, 2019, the National Academies convened a
workshop to explore the growing understanding of how the interplay
between humans and microbes affects host physiology and causes
noncommunicable diseases. Discussions included an overview of
colliding epidemics, emerging research on associations between
infectious and noncommunicable diseases, risks posed by chronic
diseases to the development and severity of infectious diseases,
and the influence of the microbiome. Workshop participants also
examined the challenges and opportunities of convergence, the
integration of health care delivery models and interventions,
potential approaches for research, policy, and practice in the
immediate-term, and potential directions for the long-term. This
publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the
workshop. Table of Contents Front Matter 1 Introduction 2 An
