“We unearth, characterize, and apply diverse CRISPR-Cas systems to address challenges, in food, agriculture, biotechnology, and therapeutics. We collaborate with academia and industry to be translationally impactful.”

– Rodolphe Barrangou, Distinguished Professor, CRISPR Lab Lead

 

As the T. R. Klaenhammer Distinguished Scholar in Probiotics Research, Rodolphe Barrangou is critically responsible for extending the pioneering work of Prof. Klaenhammer on functional genomics of lactic acid bacteria, with emphasis on health-promoting functions of Lactobacillus acidophilus. Extending the legacy of the Klaenhammer lab is a monumental challenge that we embrace; We look forward to continuing the history of outstanding research on probiotic biology.
