Associate Professor Cheryl Gale MD

The Gale lab studies the fungal gut microbiome in a variety of human and mouse subjects. Fungal sequencing is performed by the University of Minnesota Genomics Center using a next-generation sequencer from Illumina. Data generated by sequencing is analyzed using MSI's HPC systems due to the massive amounts of output from the sequencing experiments. 

Research by this group was featured on the MSI website in April 2015: The Fungal Microbiome in Infants.
