Postdoctoral fellows are the lifeblood of research institutions, yet their contributions are often underrecognized. At the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB), postdocs enter the scientific workforce with passion, vision, and advanced training – bringing the fresh ideas that fuel discovery.
Since 2021, Claudia McLaughlin Ludwig and the ISB Education team have partnered with Washington Service Corps, an AmeriCorps program, welcoming four AmeriCorps members in various important roles over that timespan. The program will be paused for 2026. Join recent AmeriCorps members Sarah Clemente and Faduma Hussein in reflecting on their time at ISB and the importance of this program to their professional development.
Researchers at ISB have developed personalized models to predict C. diff colonization risk and test targeted probiotics. This approach could prevent infection before it starts and paves the way for precision microbiome therapies tailored to individual gut ecosystems.
ISB scientists have developed a simple, low-cost method to measure the total amount of bacteria in the gut using existing sequencing data. This breakthrough could speed up microbiome research and unlock new insights into health and disease.
Researchers from the NIH-funded RECOVER study shared new insights on the risks of Long COVID, autoimmune links, and upcoming clinical trials during ISB’s July Town Hall.
