Our Projects

                                                                                                In the microscopic world, organisms evolved molecular tools to thrive, fostering intricate exchanges of compounds as they adapt, grow,

                                                                                                and symbiotically interact. Within this realm, our laboratory systematically unravels the biomolecular and biophysical mechanisms driving

                                                                                                these processes while bridging between disciplines and scales. Employing microfluidics, microscopy, biochemistry, and computer

                                                                                                simulations, we reveal the secrets of their adaptations and interactions and determine their impact on the environment.

The Biological Pump

The Biological Pump

We are interested in understanding how microbes orchestrate the flux of carbon through the ocean's biological pump.

Microbial interactions

Microbial interactions

We are studying the chemical dialogue exchange and trade among marine microbes to determine the repercussions of these interactions on the environment.

Ocean of lost enzymes

Ocean of lost enzymes

We aim to unravel the molecular mechanisms employed by microbes as they modify their surroundings and influence ecosystem dynamics.

Diatoms biology

Diatoms biology

We are studying the ecology and biology of marine diatoms.
