The main focus of our lab is to reveal the yet unknown diversity of the Indian microbiome including gut, scalp, skin microbiomes in healthy and diseased individuals. We are also pioneers in sequencing and functional analysis of novel eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomes. We develop and employ new machine learning-based software for Biology Big Data analysis.
