His research focus lies on the tumor microenvironment and alterations of the microbiome and metabolome in hepato-pancreato-biliary diseases. In particular, his group is interested in the crosstalk of the microbiome/metabolome and the immune system and how to exploit this knowledge for future diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in patients.
