Ipsita Mohanty
Assistant Professor of Pharmacology
At the Mohanty Lab, we seek to decode the chemical language of the microbiome, uncovering how microbial metabolites act as signals that shape host health and disease. By integrating advanced mass spectrometry, large-scale data science, repository-scale mining, machine learning, and biochemical approaches, we aim to systematically map and interpret these molecular messages. Our work focuses on how diet, aging, inflammation, and metabolic diseases rewire this chemical dialogue, with the goal of transforming our ability to read, predict, and ultimately modulate host-microbiome interactions.

The use of ecological theory in population management.
Aleksandra Slavkovic
Huck Chair in Data Privacy and Confidentiality; Professor of Statistics and of Public Health Sciences
Methodological developments in the area of data privacy and confidentiality in the context of small and large scale surveys, health, genomic, and network data.
