Abstract Ingestible microdevices represent a breakthrough in non-invasive sampling of the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract. By capturing the native spatiotemporal microbiome and intricate biochemical gradients, these devices allow a non-invasive multi-omic access to the unperturbed host-microbiota crosstalk, immune/nutritional landscapes and gut-organ connections. We present the current progress of GI sampling microdevices towards personalized metabolism and fostering collaboration among clinicians, engineers, and data scientists.
