We use systems biology, computational modeling, and biomolecular engineering approaches
to understand, predict and control genetic communication in bacterial communities
Computational Biology
Combining mathematical models and biological experiments to understand bacteria
Genomics
Leveraging NGS, RNAseq, and bioinformatics to gain mechanistic insights
Biomolecular Engineering
Designing genetic constructs to control bacterial interactions
Data Science & ML
Analyzing data with ML & AI techniques to predict and validate findings
