About
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Bacteriology since August 2013. In the brief time since my arrival to University of Wisconsin, I have established a translational pipeline for microbiome research. Our studies seek to understand how environment and host genetics affect organismal and functional microbial representation in the distal human gut and to understand how diet-microbe interactions impact health.
