Dr. Brzezinski's research focuses on a dominant group of marine phytoplankton, the diatoms.

Microbial oceanography, marine biogeochemistry, bacterioplankton dynamics, dissolved organic matter, carbon cycle.

My research is concerned with the biology of deep-sea animals.

Debora Iglesias-Rodriguez has worked for twenty years on diversity and function in marine phytoplankton combining molecular approaches, carbon physiology and biogeochemistry in the lab and in the field.

Uses mathematics, experiments, and field observations to understand how metabolic interactions between species shape the structure and function of ecological communities.

Explores the ecological consequences of individual variation in behavior for individuals, populations, and communities.

Marine microbial ecology, nitrogen cycling.

Professor Siegel’s research focuses on aquatic ecosystems and their functioning using the tools of an applied physicist, radiative transfer and fluid mechanics.

I am interested how microbial interactions and tightly-coupled biogeochemical cycles drive the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of populations, with a current focus on the bacteria and archaea of marine aggregates and biofilms.
