Yuzhen Ye develops computational methods to study microbial communities (microbiomes) and their links to human health and disease. This work combines bioinformatics and machine learning to analyze large biological datasets, for example predicting a person's health status from the microbes living in their body, and studying bacterial defense systems like CRISPR. Related projects touch on metagenomics, protein analysis, and connections between microbes and conditions such as colorectal cancer and atherosclerosis.
