Research aim
Our research is focused on the elucidation of the pathogenesis of Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), personalized medicine and on a severe complication of IBD: colitis-associated colorectal carcinoma.Research aim
We develop novel genomic methods for reconstructing and tracking antimicrobial resistance genes by building bioinformatics tools to facilitate data analysis of massive sequence data sets of pathogens and microbiomes.Research aim
Our research aims to unravel how the products from pathogenic and beneficial bacterial species within the intestinal microbiota contribute to human health and disease.Research aim
Our aim is to translate human microbiome knowledge to improved diagnostic tests and clinical interventions by incorporating systems biology into clinical epidemiological studies, conducting mechanistic laboratory studies, and linking the two.
