Bio (via ORCID): My research lab is focusing on host-microbiota interactions in health and disease, using unique transgenic mouse models of human pathologies (IBD, arthritis, colorectal cancer). My research lab (host-microbiota interaction lab - HMI) is coördinating the germ-free and gnotobiotic mouse facility at Ghent University. I am teamleader at the VIB Center for Inflammation Research (IRC) and assistant professor at Ghent University.
