Biological Oceanography

Specialty

Marine Microbial Ecology, Bacterioplankton Physiology, Microbial Community Interactions

My laboratory is located in the School of Oceanography at the University of Washington. We are interested in bacteria and archaea because they are critical to the cycling of nutrients in the oceans. We study these microorganisms in the laboratory and in the environment, combining cultivation based approaches and molecular biology to better understand their contribution to the cycling of nutreints in marine ecosystems.
