About the research

How do environmental variables drive the evolution and spread of microbial and viral functional innovations across ecosystems?

Read the full research overview

The lab conducts fieldwork and bioinformatics studies to describe microbial communities and in situ processes across environmental gradients. Researchers perform experiments using ecological, microbiological, and biochemical methods to identify and characterize molecular innovations such as gated microcompartments and pigment biosynthesis pathways. The group applies ecoinformatics to quantify the effects of microbial community processes on biogeochemical cycles and the Earth system. Projects link molecular mechanisms to ecosystem-level impacts by combining sequencing, experimental manipulation, and computational analysis.
