Founding Editor in Chief (2025) 

Gilbert Jack A. Gilbert, Founding Editor in Chief of mSystems®, earned his Ph.D. from Unilever and Nottingham University, UK, in 2002, and received his postdoctoral training at Queens University, Canada. From 2005 to 2010, he was a senior scientist at Plymouth Marine Laboratory, UK, and from 2010 to 2018, he was a Professor of Surgery and Director of The Microbiome Center at the University of Chicago. In 2019, he moved to University of California San Diego, where he is a Professor in the Department of Pediatrics and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. He is also Group Leader for Microbial Ecology at Argonne National Laboratory and the Yeoh Ghim Seng Visiting Professorship in Surgery at the National University of Singapore. Dr. Gilbert uses molecular analysis to test fundamental hypotheses in microbial ecology. He cofounded the Earth Microbiome Project and American Gut Project. He has authored more than 250 peer-reviewed publications and book chapters on microbial ecology. In 2014, he was recognized on Crain’s Chicago Business 40 Under 40 List, and in 2015, he was listed as one of the 50 most influential scientists by Business Insider and in the Brilliant Ten by Popular Scientist. In 2016, he won the Altemeier Prize from the Surgical Infection Society and the WH Pierce Prize from the Society for Applied Microbiology for research excellence. He also coauthored “Dirt is Good,” published in 2017, a popular science guide to the microbiome and children’s health.
