Associate Research Scientist

Bio

I am a phytoplankton ecologist. My major research interests are on understanding the effects of environmental changes such as climate change and nutrient enrichment on phytoplankton physiology. I am particularly interested in studying how these environmental changes would affect the physiology of harmful algae species and their effects on trophic interactions in the aquatic ecosystems.

Education

Linnaeus University, Sweden, 2013, Ph.D., Aquatic Ecology
