Burke, Catherine - University of Technology Sydney

个人简介

I obtained my PhD in microbiology from the University of New South Wales in 2010. My research focused on the ecology of host associated bacterial communities from the marine environment, and I now employ the same techniques to study microbial communities associated with the human body (the human microbiota). I use observational techniques to examine differences in various states of health and disease, to infer possible relationships between our reisdent bacteria and health.

研究领域

I am interested in understanding the ecology of microbial communities, and how those communities interact with living hosts. In the case of microbial communities that live on humans (the human microbiome), these microbes are thought to play important roles in our immune development, and to protect us from pathogenic microbes. Many diseases have been linked to shifts in our microbial communities, and these shifts are implicated in disease development. My ultimate aim is to understand how our native microbial communities interact with us to keep us healthy, and how these communities can be manipulated in the case of disease to achieve better health outcomes.
