The Microbe-Host Dynamics (MHD) Lab at Dalhousie University investigates the complex connections between oral and systemic health, focusing on host-microbial interactions on mucosal surfaces. Rooted in periodontology, microbiology, and immunology, the lab's research examines oral inflammation and microbial dysbiosis as markers and drivers of systemic diseases. The primary research areas include examining the role of oral inflammation in systemic diseases, conducting clinical interventional studies to assess how oral health interventions affect the progression of systemic diseases, and investigating health disparities related to oro-systemic diseases in racialized and underrepresented populations to guide personalized healthcare strategies. Through multidisciplinary efforts, the MHD Lab aims to improve patient outcomes, develop biomarkers for early detection, and establish equitable, evidence-based healthcare practices.
