Expertise Molecular microbiology Biofilms Quorum sensing Confocal microscopy I am a microbiologist with experience in environmental and molecular microbiology. My main interest is the study of the bacterial communities and their interactions with the environment. I am currently working on the study of the microbiome from permafrost affected alpine soils. Previously I also worked on the study and characterisation of the bile acid transforming bacterial community in the gut. Earlier, for my master's I studied the ammonia-oxidising Thaumarchaeota community. For my PhD I worked on the quorum-sensing regulation and interference of biofilms and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
