Generating reference maps of the colon enteric nervous system of adult mice and humans at single-cell resolution serves as a foundational reference for GI biologists, allergists and immunologists

Ramnik Xavier, a core institute member of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Kurt Isselbacher professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, Co-Director of MIT’s Center for Microbiome Informatics and Therapeutics, the director of MGH’s Center for Computational and Integrative Biology, and the director of the Klarman Cell Observatory at the Broad Institute.

As a clinical gastroenterologist and molecular biologist, he studies the molecular mechanisms involved in innate and adaptive immunity as well as the genetic variants associated with IBD and autoimmunity. His lab has led landmark studies characterizing microbiome composition in health and disease.

Ramnik Xavier’s research with FASI also explores the role of the enteric nervous system of the small bow
