"System Microbiology, Microbiome & AMR in One Health"

Our research group uses conventional microbiology and molecular biology techniques and cutting-edge sequencing technologies, coupled with bioinformatics, statistical, and epidemiological approaches to 1) study the composition, function, and dynamics of human and animal microbiomes in health and diseases, and 2) to monitor antimicrobial resistance (AMR)  and the resistome in humans, animals, and the environment using a holistic One Health approach. Our goal is to contribute to improving the scientific understanding of the roles of microbiome and AMR in public health.
