Project

This is the main project that I am working on at the moment.

MultiGutNet

Multiomics statistical inference of bacteria-phage interactions in the human microbiome

This is the pivotal project of my PhD research. The core question is: the bacteria-phage (viruses that infect bacteria) relationships. Viruses play a crucial role in shaping bacteria communities. However, are still understudied. Throught High throughput gene sequencing and metagenomic data, we construct cross-domain co-abundance networks, which aim to discover phage-host interactions in a robust and data driven way.

This project is part of the DFG priority programme SPP 2330, and is part of a larger effort. We collaborate with members of Dr. Li Deng and Dr. Johannes Söding research groups.
