Dr. Jules Larke is a Computational Biologist with the USDA Agricultural Research Service where he studies the role of dietary glycans in shaping gut microbial communities and their impact on host health. Additionally, his research seeks to improve dietary assessment by utilizing methods in artificial intelligence. Dr. Larke’s overarching goal is to link dietary databases with fine-scale food composition data that captures the molecular detail and diversity of our food to better characterize the relationship between diet and health outcomes.
