Dr. David Zeevi is a James S. McDonnell Foundation independent research fellow at the Center for Studies in Physics and Biology at the Rockefeller University. Dr. Zeevi completed his Ph.D. in Computational Systems Biology with Prof. Eran Segal at the Weizmann Institute of Science and co-authored several key papers linking the human microbiome to host glucose metabolism and metabolic disease risk. Among these works is a study on personalized nutrition by prediction of glycemic responses (Zeevi et al., Cell, 2015); an investigation of the effects of artificial sweeteners on host glucose intolerance (Suez, Korem, Zeevi et al., Nature, 2014); and a study of the effects of bread on clinical parameters and the gut microbiome (Korem, Zeevi et al., Cell Metabolism, 2017).
