Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Microbial Biology for FY2000

本行动资助2000年度美国国家科学基金会微生物生物学博士后研究奖学金。这项研究和培训计划是在生态系统研究领域，题为“南极洲麦克默多干谷生态系统组成部分之间的微生物联系”。这些山谷为研究极端环境下的生物复杂性提供了独特的环境。本研究利用一系列生物化学和分子生物学技术，将湖泊、河流和陆地系统中的微生物群落结构和功能与物理和生物地球化学过程联系起来。

This action funds an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Microbial Biology for FY 2000. The research and training plan is in the area of ecosystem studies and is entitled "Microbial linkages among ecocystem components in the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica." These valleys provide a unique environment to study biocomplexity in extreme environments. This research links microbial community structure and function with physical and biogeochemical processes in the lakes, streams, and terrestrial systems using a suite of biochemical and molecular biological techniques.
