POSITION SUMMARY:  We are a microbiome research laboratory that uses a variety of next-generation sequencing, molecular, and cell biology approaches to understand how diet affects the microbiome and to identify the mechanism by which diet-dependent changes of the microbiome trigger inflammation. We carry out nutritional intervention trials in patients to later validate relevant diet components or specific members of the microbiome as therapeutics both in vitro and in vivo. Our laboratory aims to advance treatment by using the knowledge generated in the bench to the care of the patients in our hospitals. We strive for diversity in science by training scientists from different backgrounds and by including underrepresented members of our community in research; thus our findings can be widely applicable to our diverse community.
