Meet Our Team
We are looking to recruit bioinformaticians and microbiologists. Please send us an inquiry if you would like to join us on our chase of human gut bacteria
​
Masters students are welcome to contact us for thesis work! We will be happy to include you in our ongoing projects or develop tailored ones!
​
PhD and Postdoc candidates are invited to get in touch to discuss the possibility to join us with either the group's funding or to apply for independent funding!

Chinmay Dwibedi, PhD
MiMS Group leader & DDLS fellow in Biology of infection
Chinmay received his PhD in microbial genomics from Umeå University working with Francisella tularensis, Acenatobacter baumanii and Staphylococcus epidermidis. The PhD studies were conducted at the Swedish Defence Research Agency [FOI] under the mentorship of Prof. Anders Johansson [UmU], Dr. Pär Larsson and several senior scientists & Bioinformaticians at FOI.
​
Chinmay then worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Gothenburg University with Prof. Fredrik Bäckhed and Prof. Anders Rosengren. In his postdoc he contributed towards the development of a next-generation probiotics involving Facalibacterium prausnitzii and Desulfovibrio piger. In other studies, he combined gut microbiota with human pathophysiology to develop tailored treatment therapies for prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. He also worked on the genomic characterisation of several novel gut bacteria strains!
​
In his free time, he likes to spend time with his family, travel and play badminton!
