Nicholas A. Bokulich is an Assistant Professor at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, and the head of the Laboratory of Food Systems Biotechnology. He earned his PhD at the University of California, Davis, followed by postdoctoral research at New York University Medical Center and Northern Arizona University prior to starting his group at ETH Zurich in 2020. The Bokulich lab develop and use computational and experimental “omics” approaches for studying microbial ecosystems at the interface of foods and human health, with the aim of establishing a predictive understanding of how complex communities develop and interact with each other and their host environment.
