The laboratory is divided into two halves, with a basic research laboratory on main campus at UCSD (Pride Lab East) and a laboratory dedicated to clinical microbiology studies located in the clinical microbiology facility (PALMS).

Dedicated to clinical research

Dedicated to bacteriophage research

Our laboratory used to focus on the role that viruses, particularly bacteriophages played in the human microbiome. We were amongst the first to identify that many of the viruses in the human microbiome were bacteriophages, and now we are dedicated to understanding how we might utilize bacteriophages  to promote human health. We have partnered with the Center for Innovative Phage Applications and Therapeutics (IPATH) at UCSD to further our understanding of phages and phage therapy in humans.
