Our Team

The research team at Texas Children's Microbiome Center explores how beneficial microbes can promote health, relieve disease, and prevent illness. As a team of scientists, we seek to understand the nature of the gut microbiome and molecular mechanisms of probiosis in pediatric intestinal biology. Our aim is to improve the global health of children by focusing on early gut development and chronic intestinal disorders of childhood such as inflammatory bowel disease and recurrent abdominal pain.
