Microbiomes and Ecosystem Health

We aim to mitigate the adverse effects of environmental disturbances on ecosystems by investigating environment-microbiome interactions using a systems biology approach.

Bacterial Pathogens and Food Safety

We aim to reduce the burden of foodborne diseases and improve food safety through understanding the ecology and adaptation of foodborne bacterial pathogens.
