Strategic External Committee

World-renowned experts

Closely work with MetaGenoPolis management team

To advance microbiome science in nutrition and health


MGP announces the creation of its Strategic External Committee composed of 12 internationally renowned experts in the fields of health, big data, omics and ethics

OMICS science

Our knowledge of the role of the intestinal microbiota in a large number of pathologies has grown exponentially over the last 15 years. It is now necessary to implement this knowledge at the level of industries and medical teams. I am confident that MetaGenoPolis will be able to contribute to meeting this challenge and it is a pleasure and an honor for me to be part of the strategic external committee of this centre

Christophe Junot, Head of Medicines and Healthcare Technologies Department, CEA, INRAE, Université Paris Saclay. Deputy coordinator of MetaboHUB (National Infrastructure for Metabolomics and fluxomics)

Human Health

Observing diseases helps understanding how health is usually protected and maintained (resilience). Any progress in physiology helps also understanding diseases and improving their treatments. MGP is thus a win win strategy for a gastroenterologist as myself

Philippe Marteau, Professor of hepatology and gastroenterology, APHP- Sorbonne Université, Tenon Hospital Paris, Past president of the French National Society of Gastroenterology (SNFGE)

From science to innovation

The microbiota science is at the interface of many scientific fields: clinical research, microbiology, OMICs, big data... It is therefore essential for MetaGenoPolis to surround itself with the best representatives of each of these disciplines and to consolidate our reflections on the future developments of our infrastructure, especially in functional metagenomics or in the understanding of the link food/microbiota/health

Alexandre Cavezza, Executive director MetaGenoPolis
