Focus on mapping protein function in human gut microbiome species using proteomics and systems biology.
By using systems biology approaches based on proteomics, such as thermal proteome profiling, we aim at understanding the function of proteins of the bacterial species that live in our gastrointestinal tract (our microbiome). The overall aim is to be able to manipulate the composition of our microbiome to promote healthy states.
