Key Research Interests

• Eco-physiology of aerobic methylotrophs: bacteria that utilise one-carbon (C1) compounds (i.e. methane, methylated amines)
• Microbial “functional” diversity and their impact on ecosystem functions (e.g. climate active trace gas cycling, soil and plant health and coupled biogeochemical cycles)
• Biotechnological potential of aerobic methane-oxidising bacteria (MOB)

Summary Title of Current Studentships

• QUADRAT DTP student, Alexander Allenby: Microbial social lives: A multi-scale systems approach to decode microbial metabolic networks
