Ibberson Microbiology Lab

Carolyn Brook Ibberson — Dr. Carolyn Brook Ibberson's lab at the University of Tennessee Knoxville explores the interactions between different types of microbes in environments such as chronic wounds. The lab aims to understand how these microbial communities work together or compete with one another at a molecular level, which is crucial for human health. By mapping out the spatial and metabolic landscapes of these communities, the lab seeks to identify new strategies to promote healthier microbial interactions.
