A/Prof Swarup's research combines multidisciplinary approaches to understand the biological roles of metabolites in cellular networks and in signalling between environmental microbes and their hosts. He has contributed towards bringing multi-'omics approaches, especially developing metabolomics tools, to better understand microbial processes in two environmental contexts; in tropical urban freshwater systems and in carbon emissions from tropical peat microbes. He holds PhD degrees in genetics and in plant pathology from India and the USA, respectively. Prof. Swarup is currently Deputy Director, NUS Environmental Research Institute (NERI) at the National University of Singapore.
