Hello and Welcome to the Microbiome Maverick Podcast, the only place where microbiome science meets real-world applications. I am your host, Dr. Amine Zorgani - a microbiome expert on a mission to prevent the human microbiome from extinction!
Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Prof Andrew Bartko, the Executive Director of the Center for Microbiome Innovation at UC San Diego. Andrew is not only a leading scientist and Professor of Practice in the Departments of Bioengineering and Pediatrics, but he’s also a visionary driving collaborations between top microbiome experts and industry partners. With a robust background, from pioneering research at Battelle Memorial Institute to holding 15 innovative patents, Andrew is on the forefront of transforming microbiome discovery into clinical breakthroughs.
In this episode, we’ll dive into how his team is transforming the way we define and study the microbiome using state-of-the-art metagenomic sequencing and multi omics approaches. We’ll explore his groundbreaking work to standardize research methods globally, ensuring that data from across the world speaks a common language—fueling both scientific discovery and real-world health solutions. Get ready for an insightful conversation that bridges the gap between cutting-edge science and transformative healthcare!
Enjoy the episode, and please follow and share! Happy to hear your thoughts and stay positive!
