Microbes are indispensable components of various ecosystems. They are involved in biological processes, from nutrient cycling to symbiotic association with their eukaryotic hosts. Our Microbial Genetics and Genomics research groups carry out both basic and translational research to address challenges ranging from food security to global warming. Working in partnership with our world-class facilities, our faculties perform cutting-edge research from the dry lab to the wet bench. Highlights of our research include topics related to host-microbiome interactions, pathogenesis, microbial-mediated adaptation to changing environments, microbial genome evolution, developmental patterning and metabolomics.
