Biography
David Berry is a professor at the University of Vienna and director of the Joint Microbiome Analysis Facility of the Medical University of Vienna and University of Vienna. His research focuses on the function of the gut microbiota in health and disease and employs an ecological and evolutionary perspective as well as an organismal view by studying the physiology of key gut microbiota members. In particular, his group uses novel modeling approaches to study microbial communities and develops new molecular and isotope-labeling methods and single-cell imaging technologies for studying uncultivated microorganisms in their natural environment.
