Summary
Cristian Botta is a researcher with 11 years of experience specializing in microbiology, molecular microbiology, genomics and transcriptomics, focused on probiotics, foodborne pathogen virulence, and NGS-based microbiome and transcriptome analysis from foods and the human gut. Based at the University of Torino, he blends academic research with applied collaboration with SMEs and food industries to develop functional foods and improve microbiological quality in production. His recent visiting appointments at the University of Tübingen and Computomics involved developing metagenomics and bioinformatics pipelines for food microbiome studies and industrial bioinformatic platforms. He has hands-on expertise with in vitro human gut models and high-throughput sequencing data analysis, and has explored probiotic interventions in colorectal cancer during international visits. Trained to a doctoral level with top honors in agro-food sciences, he pairs rigorous statistical and computational skills with practical food-technology experience. An unexpected background as a professional chef informs his practical approach to food systems and translational research.
