Research InterestsOur lab studies the microbial ecology of high temperature terrestrial and deep-sea hydrothermal vents. We are interested in global patterns of biodiversity in these ecosystems and use the observations to study the physiological ecology and diversity of key thermophilic populations..We use a combination of classical cultivation, molecular phylogenetic, metagenomic and transcriptomic approaches to address these fundamental questions about ecosystems that are so tightly connected to the geology and geochemistry of their environment. |
