Introduction

Researcher in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology.

My thesis project focuses on how the ecological phenomenon of acclimation is related with trait plasticity in organisms exposed to stress.

I use marine phytoplanktons as the model organisms and conduct mesocosm experiments. I use integrated experimental techniques and statistical analyses to answer my research questions.
