I am a Microbial Ecologist at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab]. Research in our group focuses on determining and better understanding the factors that structure and control microbial communities and the functional implications of alterations in community composition.

For this reason our research involves a wide range of microbial systems including surface and subsurface soils, deep subsurface environments, invertebrate guts, watersheds and contaminated aquifers, urban aerosols and various mammalian microbiomes.

To assess microbial community composition in a high-throughput and high-resolution manner we employ state-of-the-science microarray and DNA sequencing technologies and relate microbiological parameters to functional and physical properties of ecosystems using stable-isotopes, biochemical assays, geochemical/geophysical measurements and statistical modeling.

We learned about OpenWetWare from Colleagues, and have joined to contribute protocols developed in our lab.
