Christina Warinner
The University of Oxford | 2018-Present
Christina Warinner is Associate Professor of Microbiome Sciences at the Max Planck Institute for Science of Human History’s Department of Archaeogenetics in Jena, Germany. In 2010, she received her PhD from Harvard University and went on to do postdoctoral training at the University of Zurich (Switzerland) and later the University of Oklahoma (USA), where she co-founded the Laboratories for Molecular Anthropology and Microbiome Research. Warinner’s research on evolutionary medicine and the evolution of the human oral microbiome has been ground breaking. She and her research group were the first to publish a detailed genomic and proteomic study of the ancient human oral microbiome, and she is pioneering new methods for ancient dietary and human genome reconstruction. These achievements and the research advancements she has made in her field earned her a TED Fellowship in 2012 and an invitation to the White House Microbiome Innovation Forum in 2015.
