Postdoc
Ömer´s research interests are related to the fields of microbial ecology and environmental microbiology in a wide range of environments such as hydrothermal ecosystems, freshwater and marine sediments.
Marit Renken
PhD Student
Marit is working as a doctoral student on experimental geochemistry.
In her PhD, Marit investigates the cycling of dissolved organic matter in anoxic waters in the context of ocean deoxygenation and climate change.
Katharina Muschler
PhD Student
Kathi worked for more than two years in our group, including her Master Thesis. Now as a doctoral student, she investigates microbial activites and elemental cycling in the context of a changing ocean.
