Microbiome Analytics

Microbiome Analytics uncovers hidden patterns within microbial communities across soil, water, and host-associated systems (plants, animals, and humans). By leveraging bioinformatics, statistics, and machine learning, it transforms high-throughput sequencing data (e.g., metagenomics and metatranscriptomics) into actionable insights—integrating multi-omics and linking microbiomes to environmental and host-related factors. This research reveals how microbes drive ecosystem functions and enables innovations in sustainable agriculture, environmental sustainability, and health.
