USF Microbiomes Institute

Welcome to the USF Microbiomes Institute The USF Microbiomes Institute is an initiative to merge and integrate interdisciplinary researchers and departments from the University of South Florida (USF), USF Health, Tampa General Hospital, James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital, and Moffitt Cancer Center, with a special working focus on microbiomes studies in soil, water, plant, animals, food and human health. The Institute intends to join different departments and colleges, from engineering to business, and create opportunities for transdisciplinary projects with new approaches to microbiome studies. Composed of several working groups such as Education and Training, Data Analysis, Infrastructures, Core Facilities, and Scientific programs, we integrate academics with industry, promoting partnerships with colleges and departments to share experiences and enhance research and knowledge in the microbiome field.
