Research Interests
I am a Ph.D. student at the MARUM-Center for Marine Environmental Science in Bremen, Germany within the Excellence Cluster "The Ocean Floor". My project is supervised by Excellence Chair Prof. Dr. Victoria Orphan, and I am affiliated to the Organic Geochemistry Lab of Prof. Dr. Kai-Uwe Hinrichs. I am working on microbial processes in seep-environments using stable isotope labeling techniques. With a background in marine geosciences, my special interests are interactions between microbial communities and marine sediments, microbial contributions to elemental cycles and mass spectrometry imaging.
