Prof Fuad Iraqi currently works and head of the Department of Clinical Microbiology and Immunology, Tel Aviv University. His current research is focused on understanding diseases etiology and host susceptibility to infectious and chronic diseases including Klebsiella pneumonia, Aspergillus fumigatus, dental infection (Periodontitis), Type 2 Diabetes and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) associated with obesity, gut microbiota and mapping modifiers for colon cancer development. Furthermore, he has ongoing projects for identifying the host genetic factors/background influencing the efficiency of Drug treatments for type 2 diabetes. He uses the mouse model, especially the unique and powerful mouse resource population known as the Collaborative Cross (CC), for studying systems genetics; including of performing quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, assessing gene expression profiles by RNAseq using deep sequence technology.
