Jose M. Bruno-Barcena, Ph.D. is a Professor of Microbiology in the Department of Plant and Microbial Biology at NC State University. Dr. Bruno-Barcena is a translational industrial microbiologist with an effective research program, which includes strong collaborative relationships within the biotechnology industry, and a passion for bioprocess workforce training. During the last two decades at NCSU he contributed to the teaching, training, and service mission of the University including inter and intra college teaching efforts with interactions at all levels, from undergraduate and graduate students to industry outreach programs including training of professionals and US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspectors. His research projects focus on microbial physiology, exploring bioreactor technology and traditional fermentation processes using renewable carbon sources. He currently aims to study the physiology of gut microbial communities using traditional preclinical in vivo models as well as in vitro approaches involving cultivation of infant gut microbial communities using packed-bed reactors. He has published over 35 peer-reviewed publications, 6 book chapters, and 8 invention disclosures.
