Researchers

To develop the knowledge and treatments needed to help patients with microbiome-associated diseases, we need the best minds working together. CMIT connects interdisciplinary researchers across New England and beyond with the tools, resources, and collaborative network needed to overcome the field’s greatest challenges.

Researchers at any career stage from any field or institution are welcome at the CMIT table. Faculty, postdocs, graduate students, and undergraduates from any lab are welcome to join us at our seminar, symposia and social events to meet members of our community and learn more about CMIT.

CMIT invests in foundational resources for the broader microbiome research community to increase access to tools and techniques in the field. To request use of our human gut microbe strain collections, see our page on the BIO-ML library and the Global Microbiome Conservancy. To learn more about data generation services available to the wider research community, please read more about the Microbial ‘Omics Core established by CMIT at the Broad Institute.
