Overview

Bernhard Hube is affiliated with the Leibniz Association in Germany. Their research primarily focuses on medicine, with a significant body of work in infectious diseases, epidemiology, molecular biology, microbiology, and food science. Hube's contributions span multiple subfields that are central to understanding fungal pathogens and their interactions with hosts.

Their work covers several specialized topics including:

  • Antifungal resistance and susceptibility
  • Fungal infections and studies
  • Gut microbiota and health
  • Probiotics and fermented foods
  • Antimicrobial peptides and activities
  • Peptidase inhibition and analysis
  • Reproductive tract infections research

Bernhard Hube has published in a variety of scientific journals and venues. Of note are these frequent publication platforms:

  • Faculty Opinions - Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature
  • mBio
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Cellular Microbiology
  • PLoS Pathogens

Their recent papers include:

  • The impact of the Fungus-Host-Microbiota interplay upon Candida albicans infections: current knowledge and new perspectives, 2020, FEMS Microbiology Reviews
  • Immune regulation by fungal strain diversity in inflammatory bowel disease, 2022, Nature
  • The gut, the bad and the harmless: Candida albicans as a commensal and opportunistic pathogen in the intestine, 2020, Current Opinion in Microbiology
  • Antibiotics create a shift from mutualism to competition in human gut communities with a longer-lasting impact on fungi than bacteria, 2020, Microbiome
  • Candida albicans and Candida glabrata: global priority pathogens, 2024, Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews

Throughout their career, Hube frequently collaborates with several co-authors, including Sascha Brunke, Mark S. Gresnigt, Julian R. Naglik, Selene Mogavero, and Lydia Kasper. These collaborations reflect an interconnected research effort in fungal biology and host-pathogen interactions.
