Precision medicine microbiome-based solutions for mitigating antibiotic adverse effects

October 01, 2024

Continuous use of antibiotics is associated with side effects on the gut microbiome. In this project, we aim to develop strategies to minimize these effects. Each person’s microbiome is unique and responds differently to antibiotic exposure. We seek to leverage both experimental and computational approaches to predict individual microbiome responses to antibiotics.

Dynamics and Integrity of gut mocusal biofilms

October 01, 2024

In this project, we use various experimental and computatinal tools to understand the factors that govern biofilm strucutral integrity. We test the effect of microbial composition in additon to diet and other environmental conditionss such as fluidid motions on gut mucosal biofilms.
