Jeremiah Faith

Dr. Jeremiah Faith is a Professor in the Departments of Genetics and Genomic Sciences, Medicine, and Clinical Immunology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. He leads the Faith Lab, focusing on microbial contributions to immune responses and inflammatory diseases. His research integrates microbiology, immunology, and clinical medicine.

Education: PhD from Boston University, followed by postdoctoral training at Washington University in St. Louis.

• PhD, Boston University
• Postdoc, Washington University in St. Louis

Research interests center on gut microbiota's role in immunity, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and microbiota-based therapies. Key projects include Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) efficacy, strain-level microbiome dynamics, and microbial influences on vaccine responses.

Publications highlight advancements in microbiota transplantation, immunotherapy-associated colitis, and microbial strain engraftment mechanisms. His work bridges basic science and clinical applications, including clinical trials of live biotherapeutics (e.g., VE303 for C. difficile).
