Forskning

I am an environmental microbiologist studying atmospheric microorganisms and their impacts on climate, air quality, and health. I lead the Aeromicrobiology Laboratory, combining fieldwork, lab simulations, molecular, and single-cell approaches. My research focuses on the influences of airborne microorganisms on (i) clouds processes with a focus on polar regions; (ii) health and food security aspects related to airborne microbiomes in indoor, and agricultural environments.
