Ivan Vujkovic-Cvijin, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Science, Karsh Division of Gastroenterology, and the F. Widjaja Inflammatory Bowel Disease Institute of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Dr. Vujkovic-Cvijin studies how microbes that inhabit the human gut contribute to diseases including inflammatory bowel disease. He pioneered the study of gut bacteria in HIV disease progression and has helped define best practices for the investigation of gut microbial communities across human diseases. In pursuit of understanding causal roles of gut bacteria in inflammatory disease, he has developed novel tools to quantify immune responses to the microbiota. Dr. Vujkovic-Cvijin's research group uses microbiology, immunology, ecology, and data science to carry out translational work with the goal of improving human health and alleviating disease.
