Biography

Under which circumstances do marine invertebrates utilize microbial symbioses for reproduction and development, and when the contrary occurs? My long-term research goal is to provide an understanding of the functional interplay between the reproductive and developmental stages of marine invertebrates and their symbiotic microorganisms, how these partnerships evolve, and why symbioses are crucial for life in the plankton.
