Background
I am broadly interested in microbiome ecology and evolution and have studied microbiomes in a variety of contexts, including agricultural settings and the model lab organism C. elegans. I received my Ph.D. in Integrative Biology from the University of California, Berkeley and then moved to the MPI-EVA for a postdoc. In 2023, I was awarded a Minerva Research Group by the Max Planck Society.
