Main Research Interests
Animal-microbe interactions
- Marine ecology
- (Co-)evolution and diversity of host-beneficial symbionts
- Chemosynthetic endo- and ectosymbioses
- Eukaryote-Prokaryote-Virus interactions
I am currently working on the sulphor-oxidizing gamma-proteobacterium Candidatus Thiosymbion, which occurs as an endosymbiont of gutless oligochetes and nematodes of the genus Astomonema, as well as in an ectosymbiotic relationship with stilbonematid nematodes.
Using comparative genomics I try to shed light on the evolutionary history of these symbioses.
