These are the topics on which the future of our planet depends. Therefore, one of my research goals is to address these problems with all the tools and knowledge I gained so far.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 My research interest focuses on microbially-driven processes in ecosystems affected by anthropogenic activities, their relevance to biogeochemical cycles, and contaminants\u2019 and nutrients\u2019 bio(trans)formation. I study how human activities (i.e. agricultural and industrial run-offs, wastewater discharge, industrialization) and geogenic contaminants contribute to ecosystem deterioration and how they drive the microbial community structure and function. Furthermore, in my research, I aim to find solutions to some of these problems via bioremediation, bioaugmentation, synthetic microbiology, or bioengineering. I believe that solutions to problems created by humans are already available in nature, we just need to find them, understand them, optimize them, and apply them to bioengineered systems.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>&#8211; Main research lines &#8211;<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h4><strong>Anaerobic methane oxidation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 Anaerobic methane-oxidizing archaea (ANME-2) can couple oxidation of methane to the reduction of various electron acceptors such as sulfate, nitrate, iron, and manganese oxides. Sulfate-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (S-DAMO), a process mediated by consortia of methanotrophic archaea and sulfate-reducing bacteria, was first discovered in marine sediment. The nitrate-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (N-DAMO) discovered in freshwater sediment was shown however to be driven by either nitrate-reducing ANME-2 archaea independently or in consortia of ANME-2 archaea and nitrite-reducing bacteria. Recently, studies provided evidence of metal(loid)-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (M-DAMO). Recent studies suggested that in the M-DAMO process besides iron and manganese oxides, other metals and metalloids can be used as electron acceptors such as chromium (VI), selenium (VI), vanadium (V), bromine (V) and antimony(V). Therefore in my research, I explored the metabolism of ANME-2 archaea to use these toxic compounds and explore new solutions to the pressing problems of heavy metals contamination and greenhouse gas emissions potentially applicable in wastewater treatment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d35f3e7 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"d35f3e7\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-42295a1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"42295a1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">-- My scientific journey --<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-29559ea elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"29559ea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Driven by a passion for science and education, my journey has taken me across the globe, where I&#8217;ve studied and worked in diverse cultural settings.

journey and obtain a Ph.D. in Prof. Kappler&#8217;s group at the University of T\u00fcbingen, Germany. My doctoral journey unfolded within an interdisciplinary and international consortium of scientists united in the common goal of unraveling the mechanisms behind arsenic groundwater contamination in Southeast Asia. This extraordinary experience emphasized the indispensability of integrating knowledge from diverse disciplines to understand complex environmental processes. Engaging closely with project collaborators, I immersed myself in state-of-the-art hydrochemistry, mineralogy, and geochemistry methods, seamlessly complementing my expertise in geomicrobiology. The focal point of my Ph.D. project was the investigation of microbially mediated iron reduction, shedding light on the intricate processes leading to arsenic mobilization.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5207fd7 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"5207fd7\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-98ad885 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"98ad885\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00a0 \u00a0Through this work, I not only discovered new insights into the mechanisms of arsenic groundwater contamination but also contributed to bridging knowledge gaps in arsenic and iron biogeochemistry.
