Dr. Ines Thiele is a Personal Professor at the National University of Ireland, Galway. Her research interests include the diet-gut-brain-axis in neurodegenerative diseases.

Dr. Cyrille Thinnes cultivates the Virtual Metabolic Human business case, integrating the technology, stakeholder, and organisational capabilities for enhancing user experience.

Dr Mohammad Faiz possesses expertise in integrating two significant modelling paradigms: COBRA and PBPK. He focuses on developing a comprehensive whole-body metabolic modelling framework for assessing drug effectiveness and toxicity, while also predicting optimal dosages for systems biomedicine application.

Dr. Wiley Barton earned his PhD in Computational Biology from University College Cork. His focus is on building a pipeline for constructing a microbial model for the cow microbiome.

Joe Desbonnet is responsible for maintaining the computational infrastructure of the research group.

Filippo obtained his Master's degree in pharmaceutical chemistry with a thesis focused on doping analysis. His research interests include the application of constraint-based models to investigate diet-drugs-microbiota-host interactions.

Timothy obtained his Master's degree in bioinformatics from the University College Cork, Ireland. His work includes enabling the large-scale integration of metagenomic data with microbiome-level metabolic models. 

Tim is a PhD student with a background in systems biology. His research focuses on applying the constrained-based modelling framework to investigate the role of the gut-brain axis in neurodegenerative diseases. 

Bram obtained his Master's degree in biotechnology at Wageningen University. His research area is in the role of gut microbes in the context of cognitive health and is part of the ITN SmartAge project.
