About us
Welcome to our research group!
We are passionate about exploring the fascinating world of microorganisms from an ecological perspective. 🦠🔬🌍
We conduct research mainly in natural ecosystems, including marine and polar areas 🌊❄️, as well as microbes within multiple hosts such as arthropods, birds, and mammals. 🦐 🐧 🐦🐻... 😊
Through our work, we aim to ✨ illuminate ✨ the intricate dynamics of these interactions and their broader ecological implications, including their roles in biogeochemical cycles, food webs and biogeography.
Join us on this exciting journey to uncover the vital connections that shape our planet's ecosystems!
We are a team of biologists, microbiologists and oceanographers passionate about studying microbiomes from an ecological perspective! Our research explores how microbial communities interact with their environments, respond to changes, and impact ecosystems 🌍.
Our goal? To uncover the vital roles microbes play in sustaining life and protecting ecosystem health! 🌱🌊
Today we celebrate one of the most important species of the Southern Ocean: krill! 🦐💙 At The MLab, we focus on studying the microbiome of krill, exploring how these tiny creatures interact with their environment and other marine life. 🔬🧫
