Chris Creevey

Professor Chris Creevey is a faculty member at the School of Biological Sciences, Queen's University Belfast. His research focuses on Computational Biology with emphasis on Ecological and Evolutionary Principles applied to Microbial Communities in animal hosts ranging from ruminants to poison frogs.

His research group integrates bioinformatic analyses with in vitro and in vivo experiments via collaborations, prioritizing the development of open-source computational approaches for evolutionary analyses and microbial community organization. He welcomes PhD applicants with backgrounds in biology or computational disciplines.

The group's scientific trends span Antimicrobial Resistance, Rumen Microbiome, Metagenomics, Computational Epidemiology, Phylogenetics, and Microbial Functionality in diverse ecosystems.
