Microorganisms play an important role in catalyzing a wide array of biogeochemical processes that affect the composition of our soil, air and water. Understanding these phenomena requires a multidisciplinary approach focussed on the contribution of the ubiquitous microorganism (bacteria are everywhere!). The goal of my research program is to bridge the boundary between earth science and microbiology to improve our understanding of fundamental earth system processes and to apply this knowledge to benefit humanity.

微生物在催化一系列影响土壤、空气和水的组成的生物地球化学过程中发挥着重要作用。 理解这些现象需要多学科的方法，重点是无处不在的微生物的贡献（细菌无处不在！）。我的研究计划的目标是弥合地球科学和微生物学之间的边界，以提高我们对基本地球系统过程的理解，并应用这些知识造福人类。
