Main Research Interests

  • Anaerobic oxidation of methane by thermophilic microorganisms
  • Cultivation and microbiology of novel anaerobic microorganisms
  • Imaging of microbial activity and carbon fixation using high-resolution secondary ion mass spectrometry
  • Multiple/ dual stable isotope probing approaches to explore microbial activities and carbon fixation in subsurface sediments
  • Organic, inorganic and isotope geochemistry of fluid-flow impacted geosystems
  • Marine Biogeochemistry including measurements microbially-mediated turnover in marine sediments (35S- and 14C-incubations and supervision of the radiotracer labs)
