Trine Zachariasen

Trine Zachariasen serves as a Postdoctoral Researcher (Research Fellow) in the Department of Biology at the University of Copenhagen, specializing in Microbiology. Her work focuses on high-resolution analysis of microbial communities through computational and experimental approaches.

Research Focus: Her primary investigations center on gut microbiome dynamics and antibiotic resistance mechanisms, particularly examining differential responses to antibiotic exposures across age groups. She develops advanced bioinformatics tools like MAGinator for strain-level metagenomic profiling, bridging computational biology with clinical microbiology applications.

Publication Trends: Recent work in Nature Communications demonstrates her dual expertise in methodological innovation (2024 MAGinator framework) and translational microbiome research (2023 comparative antibiotic study). Her publications reveal consistent focus on metagenomic analysis of resistome evolution and strain-specific microbial interactions in human gut ecosystems.
