ABOUT ME

I recently finished my PhD at the James Cook University and the Australian Institute of Marine Science under the supervision of Dr. Nicole Webster and Prof. David Bourne. My PhD research focuses on the identification of microbial indicators of coral reef health.

Soon I will continue my scientific adventure as a FWF Hertha-Firnberg Fellow and as an associated member of the REWIRE Post-Doc Program at the Centre for Microbiology and Environmental Systems Science at the University of Vienna. My research will focus on the interactions of microbial symbionts with the tropical sponge Ianthella basta.
