Dr. Curtis Huttenhower has been appointed as the Eddie Goldenberg Research Chair of Canada in Microbiome Sciences at UBC, starting in Summer 2027. A leader in computational biology and bioinformatics, Huttenhower aims to advance the understanding of microbiomes—the microorganisms that impact human health—by developing interventions based on the interactions between human and environmental microbial communities. His research will focus on translating microbiome data into practical solutions across health and environmental sectors, positioning Canada as a center for microbiome research. He also plans to establish the Microanthrome Systems & Engineering Center at UBC to facilitate collaborative research and community engagement in microbiome science.
