1H | One Health

Human, animal, plant, and environmental health are interconnected. We study biological factors across these systems, including beneficial organisms, microbiomes, pathogens, antimicrobial resistance, and host responses, to better understand health-related processes and their wider implications.

2O | Organisms · Omics

We investigate diverse biological systems, including organisms associated with fermented foods, plants, and aquatic animals, as well as those adapted to challenging environments. Genomics, glycomics, metabolomics, and microbiome analysis help us examine their genetic, molecular, and functional characteristics.

 3P | Pathways · Probiotics · Protection

We study biochemical pathways and functionally important compounds, including microbial exopolysaccharides, pigments, biosurfactants, antimicrobial compounds, and enzymes. We evaluate their biological activities and potential relevance to food preservation, health-protection, agricultural sustainability, biotechnology, and environmental management.

4E | Ecology · Environment · Evolution · Emergence

Biological systems are shaped by their environments, interactions, and adaptation over time. We study biological diversity and function across fermented foods, host-associated systems, plant habitats, alkaline settings, and polluted environments. These investigations help us understand how biological traits respond to different conditions and identify questions for further research in biotechnology, agriculture, and environmental management.
