Fields of expertise

Host-microbe interactions, nutrient exchange symbioses, endosymbiosis, plastid evolution

Mission

My research focuses on the role of metabolic interactions in the evolution and functioning of photosymbioses. By using simple model systems such as Paramecium and Aiptasia, I aim to understand the fundamental processes that gave rise to endosymbioses and as such the evolution of eukaryotic life.
