Microbiomes in Human Health
Our researchers are trying to understand how microbiomes are linked to human health in all areas of the body. Current projects are working to understand which microbes are critical for disease initiation, treat metabolic disease with probiotics, and explore microbial transplantation as a solution to microbiome-associated diseases.
Check out the Integrative Analysis of Metabolic Phenotypes Training Program at Penn State to learn more about how researchers in our Center are integrating genomic and metabolomic data sets to better understand human disease.
