Cardiovascular Metabolism and Microbiome Interactions

My research is focused on the interplay between cardiovascular metabolism and the microbiome. I investigate how metabolic processes, particularly those related to lipid metabolism and cardiovascular health, are influenced by and interact with the gut microbiome. My studies encompass areas such as obesity, fatty liver disease, and cardiovascular disorders, exploring the complex relationships between metabolic pathways, microbial communities, and disease development.
