Dr. Jun Zou has over a decade of experience investigating host-microbial interactions, with a focus on metabolic disease. At Georgia State University, his laboratory studies how diet-microbiota interactions regulate metabolic and immune homeostasis in obesity and diabetes. His work has demonstrated that dietary fiber reshapes the gut microbiota to improve metabolic outcomes through IL-22 and short-chain fatty acids, and that microbiota alterations can be vertically transmitted to influence disease risk. Building on this foundation, his current research focuses on how diabetes-associated gut dysbiosis impairs host defense against infections, including influenza A virus.
