معرفی
Dr. Ankur Naqib is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology at Rush Medical College, Rush University. His research focuses on the interplay between the microbiome, circadian rhythms, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. He investigates how gut dysbiosis and circadian disruption contribute to disease pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on translational approaches involving prebiotics and microbiota modulation. Dr. Naqib collaborates extensively with co-authors like Ali Keshavarzian and Stefan Green, exploring topics such as the gut-brain axis, microbial metabolites, and inflammatory pathways.
His work highlights the role of intestinal barrier function, circadian misalignment, and alcohol-related effects on gut health. He has published widely in journals like Nature Communications, Neurobiology of Disease, and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. His studies often bridge basic science with clinical applications, aiming to develop novel therapies targeting microbiota and circadian health.
Dr. Naqib's research has been recognized by multiple news outlets and platforms, underscoring its relevance to public health. He actively explores interdisciplinary approaches, integrating immunology, neurology, and gastroenterology to address complex health challenges.
