Microbes, nutrition and the human health

We study how microbial metabolism and diet influence human physiology and disease, with the goal of advancing microbiome-based strategies for health. Our lab combines experimental systems, multi-omics, and computational biology to drive mechanistic insight and innovation.

Research at a glance

Next-gen probiotics, prebiotics & postbiotics

Designing strain- and metabolite-focused interventions to restore gut ecosystem function and translate benefits to human health.

Gut–brain signaling & extracellular vesicles

Mapping how microbial metabolites and extracellular vesicles modulate host pathways, including neuromicrobiology of the gut–brain axis.

Diet–xenobiotics–microbiota interplay

Defining how foods and therapeutic drugs reshape microbiome composition and function—and testing strategies to mitigate adverse effects.

Food microbiology & safety

Developing functional foods and microbiota-guided approaches that enhance safety and deliver measurable health outcomes.
