Sharon Huws, PhD, Queens University Belfast, UK
Professor Huws’ research is focused on understanding microbiomes, especially in the context of understanding the role that livestock gastrointestinal tract microbiomes play in food security, environmental impact (Greenhouse gas emissions) and spread of antimicrobial resistance. She is also interested in understanding the evolutionary drivers of antimicrobial resistance and exploiting microbiomes for industrial biotechnology purposes, with a focus on novel antimicrobial discovery. She has over 20 years of experience working on livestock gastrointestinal microbiomes with more than 100 publications and numerous book chapters. Professor Huws also won the Sir John Hammond award for contributions to Animal Science research in 2023.
