Welcome Dr. Jean-Bernard Lubin
The Department of Pathology welcomes Jean-Bernard Lubin, PhD. Dr. Lubin joined the Microbiology and Immunology Division as an Assistant Professor.
Dr. Lubin is originally from Long Island, New York. Dr. Lubin completed his PhD at the University of Delaware studying the evolution and functional significance of sialic acid metabolism in Vibrio pathogenesis. Afterwards, Dr. Lubin then completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, where he studied commensal-host interactions of the early-life intestinal microbiome. Dr. Lubin specializes in early-life microbiome research, microbial genetics, biochemistry, and mucosal immunology.
Dr. Lubin was drawn to the University of Utah because of its “strong alignment with my research interests, particularly its commitment to microbiome science, and its collegial atmosphere.”
So far, Dr. Lubin feels that the University of Utah has been a positive experience and that he has settled down well. Outside of work, he enjoys watching sports, playing board games, astronomy, camping, and fishing.
