Research area
My research focuses on understanding microbial communities that influence methane cycling in peatlands, which are the largest carbon-storage ecosystems on Earth and host a wide range of microorganisms involved in anaerobic C1 cycling.
Since anthropogenic activities and climate change are threatening these ecosystems, potentially disrupting the functions governed by their microbial communities, I aim to illuminate them and identify ecDNA elements that drive microbial methane cycling through cultivation and metagenomic techniques.
