Justin L. Sonnenburg
Alex and Susie Algard Endowed Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe goals of the Sonnenburg Lab research program are to (i) elucidate the basic mechanisms that underlie dynamics within the gut microbiota and (ii) devise and implement strategies to prevent and treat disease in humans via the gut microbiota. We investigate the principles that govern gut microbial community function and interaction with the host using a broad range of experimental approaches including studies of microbiomes in diverse human cohorts.

Yuqi Tan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Microbiology and Immunology
BioDr. Tan is a computational biologist who develops computational tools to quantitatively assess cell identity, improve stem cell engineering, and understand cancer heterogeneity. As a Ph.D. student, Dr. Tan routinely performs computational and quantitative analysis on scRNA-seq data, which has resulted in several publications. Currently, at her postdoctoral position, Dr. Tan integrated single-cell omics with multiplexed image data to understand high dimensional tissue architecture in cancer. Dr.Tan's long-term aims are to integrate multi-omics to understand how different cell types and their interactions contribute to development and disease.
