Trends in Microbiome and Digital One Health

Dr. Kyrpides joined the DOE Joint Genome Institute in 2004 to lead the Genome Biology Program and the development of the comparative analysis platforms for microbial genomes and metagenomes (IMG). He became the Metagenomics Program head in 2010 and has the combined Microbial Genomes and Metagenomes Program since 2011. Prior to joining the DOE Joint Genome Institute, Dr. Kyrpides led the development of the genome analysis and Bioinformatics core at Integrated Genomics Inc. in Chicago, IL. He did his postdoctoral studies with Carl Woese at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and at Argonne National Laboratory. Dr. Kyrpides’ research focus on Microbiome Research with an emphasis on Microbiome Data Science. His group is developing novel methods for enabling large-scale comparative analysis, as well as mining and visualization of big data
