Research summary
Host-microbe interactions: phage, metagenomics, gut, nose.

My broad interests are to identify clinically relevant host-bacterial interactions at a mechanistic level using omics techniques, computational analysis, and in vitro interrogation. I am specifically interested in phage, metagenomics, and bacteriology. I study human and animal samples from the nose and the gut
