Biography

Jonas Cremer is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biology at Stanford University. He focuses on the physiology and growth of prokaryotes, particularly through the study of microbiota. Having studied physics and biophysics at Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich, he further advanced his expertise with postdoctoral research at the University of California, San Diego. His research examines the scales of prokaryotic life, investigating both fundamental cellular processes and collective behavioral dynamics of cells within specific ecological environments. His primary model organism is Escherichia coli, with a significant focus on gut bacteria and their interactions with human hosts. His research employs quantitative experimentation and mathematical modeling to understand the coordination of vital physiological processes such as metabolism, protein synthesis, and cell-size regulation. Additionally, he explores how intestinal physiology and dietary patterns affect bacterial growth and ecology.
