Our study ‘The global human impact on biodiversity’ is out in Nature! Through an unprecedented synthesis (2133 studies!) we show that humans are not only shrinking species numbers—but reshaping entire communities across the planet. 🌍🌐🐟🌿🪲 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We sampled a "fjord-lake" last year near Tromsø (Norway) to study microbial processes in oxygen-deficient conditions with a focus of methylmercury production and anoxygenic anaerobic photosynthesis. Hope you will like our documentary! www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Eds...

Hydrogenotrophic methanogens overwrite isotope signals of subsurface methane
Methane, a greenhouse gas and energy source, is commonly studied using stable isotope signals as proxies for its formation processes. In subsurface environments, methane often exhibits equilibrium iso...

I am looking for an ERC-funded postdoc to work on spatial proteomics of microalgae (red algae and glaucophytes). The ideal candidate will have experience with mass spec and data analysis (R), but above all a keen interest in broad eukaryote evolution and protists #protistsonsky (1/2)
