Jun Zhu is a Professor in the Department of Microbiology at Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania. His research focuses on understanding bacterial pathogenesis, particularly the mechanisms by which pathogens such as Vibrio cholerae and Clostridium difficile interact with their environments and the host. His laboratory employs innovative genetic screens and biochemical techniques to explore how these bacteria sense and respond to various environmental signals, which can lead to virulence and the development of treatments for diarrheal diseases. Zhu has authored numerous publications on topics including quorum sensing and the genetic controls that facilitate interactions between bacterial pathogens and their hosts.
