My research focus is on data-driven translational human microbiome research. I aim to facilitate development of point-of-care microbiome-based diagnostics and generic as well as population-specific therapeutics. My group uses a combination of metagenomics and statistical/machine learning to understand microbial communities inhabiting different sites of our body and understanding cross-body-site microbiome interactions. My goal is to identify microbiome-derived markers of health and disease, the variation of disease signatures across diseases, their association with aging, diet and life-style and formulate novel microbiome-derived clinical end-points associated with different therapeutic interventions. My research has been published in notable journals including The British Medical Journals, Annual Review of Medicine, Nature Medicine, Nature Ecology and Evolution, Gut, Gastroenterology and Nature Reviews Gastroenterology and Hepatology
